Also has aftermarket quick ratio steering box. Not a W30 car but has the W30 ram air cold air intake with twin scoops under the bumper. Interior in great stock condition, front seat has been reupholstered and the carpet has been replaced, everything else is original. Original bumper jack assembly still in the trunk. Only 36, 000 1968 442's were ever made. Finished the last week of April 1968 at the Fremont, California plant, it's build plate matches the vin, unlike some 442's that were taken off other assembly lines to be finished. I have the original protecto-plate, and owners manual, the original stereo, and all the original brakes, springs, and master cylinder/booster boxed up if someone would like them, to have the option of returning it to stock. Runs and drives great. Stops and turns corners better than any factory 442. Very reliable cruiser, always turns heads. Has won multiple trophies at local car shows, and you rarely encounter another one. Feel free to ask any further questions.
