1967 Oldsmobile 442

1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 442 Convertible â?" 400ci V8, 4-Speed Manual, Flame Red Why This Car Is Special The 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 442 Convertible sits at an interesting crossroads in muscle car history. For 1967, Oldsmobile transitioned the 442 from an option package â?" which it had been since 1964 â?" into a distinct model in its own right. The name originally stood for four-barrel carburetor, four-speed transmission, and dual exhaust. All three of those things are present and accounted for on this car. That means this is not a base Cutlass with 442 trim bolted on; it is an actual 442, the real article, built as Oldsmobile intended the package to be experienced. The 1967 model year also brought a significant engine change. Oldsmobile replaced the previous 400ci engine with a new 400ci unit that was exclusive to the 442.
