Oldsmobile trade wanted

Recommended Posts

I have mint open but sealed bags AMT/Ertl '66 Olds convertible issued in 1999.

I hate to steal the just the frame and drivetrain out of it for an up coming project.

So I want to offer it here in trade first.

I looking to get a Revell 72 Cutlass chassis, suspension and engine. I would not need the body or bumpers. (Though I could practice air brushing on them).

Maybe an AMT 1969 442 could work depending on the wheelbase.

Anyone interested?

Trade no longer required. Plan B is:

75 Hurst Olds to utilize front 2/3s of a 67 Pro Street Chevelle and the rear tubs of a 66 GTO.

Because... The 66 GTO will be Pro Streeted... eventually.

I still would like to have an Oldsmobile engine for my 75 H/O.

I might 'borrow' the one from this 66 Olds unless I can source one elsewhere.

What kits have Olds engines that could be made to appear like a stock 75 vintage 455?

BTW, the 69 olds chassis is a PERFECT FIT for the 75, just doesn't have a cat. Not sure how accurate the rest is for a "smogger".

I would not mind going that route. But I have only one 69 442 in the stash and I would like to actually build it as a 442. Particularly since I have a resin scooped hood for it. My goal with the 75 is to make it a complete model not just a gussied up promo.

I have "most" of the chassis pcs. from the AMT '66 Olds 442 W30, including  the nicely detailed front suspension.  Also the chrome tree.  And it looks like the whole engine and interior.  Let me know.

Thank you for the offer but have acquired enough parts to accomplish my goals.
