"1970 Oldsmobile 442 Holiday Coupe
Matador Red 455ci V8 Factory A/C Real 442
Offered here is a beautifully preserved and highly original 1970 Oldsmobile 442 Holiday Coupe, presented in its factory-correct Matador Red finish over an Ivory bucket seat interior with a white vinyl roof. Documented as a genuine 442 with style code 34487 and a build date of 07B, this example retains its original character and authentic muscle car presence while benefiting from a high-quality cosmetic presentation.
The body is exceptionally straight and rust free, with excellent panel fit, properly aligned grille and lighting components, and tight gaps throughout. The paintwork is finished in its correct Matador Red (Code 75A) and is complemented by the original-style white vinyl roof, white 442 side stripes, and bright chrome and trim that present beautifully.
Power comes from a 455ci V8 featuring block casting 396021F, desirable E-code heads, and a build date of 146. The engine is paired with a TH400 automatic transmission and a 12-bolt rear axle fitted with the desirable W27 aluminum rear cover. The car delivers strong performance along with excellent road manners thanks to power steering, power front disc brakes, and factory air conditioning.
Factory Super Stock I wheels are mounted with reproduction Firestone ""Sup-R-Belt"" redline tires, while dual exhaust outlets terminate through correct chrome tips. The factory rear spoiler completes the unmistakable appearance of Oldsmobile's flagship muscle coupe.
Inside, the Ivory interior (Code 937 B80) remains true to original specification and features bucket seats, center console with floor shifter, 442 rally steering wheel, and a highly detailed factory-style presentation throughout.

At Art & Speed, we believe that automobiles are more than just transportation. They are part of the "thrill ride" of life!
Maybe it was the car that carried you and that special person on your first date; or brought home your newborn baby. Perhaps a certain car brought father and son together in a project that created cherished memories through frustration, laughter and proud accomplishments. Maybe it was the object that created freedom and exhilaration from the growl of the big block engine, the smell of the interior and the fuel, the feeling of being one with the road. Perhaps it's all about the first time you saw your favorite car with it's sleek lines, wild colors, bold graphics, or elegant sense of beauty and artful design. The wind in your face and hair… The sensation of speed… And remember the family vacations? And, of course, none of us ever had our picture taken with our cars, right?
As adults, we have a passion for the "vehicles of our lives," the stories that they remind us of, the music that we hear when we see certain automobiles. Indeed, automobiles are woven into the tapestry of our lives, reminding us of simpler pleasures.
At Art & Speed, our goal is to help you relive those experiences and create new ones. Founded by Kevin Caffman and Barry Gilmore, Art & Speed delivers the vehicles, memorabilia and special events that strike passion, revive old memories, and allow us to share those events with our family and friends. And most importantly, Art & Speed will help you make new memories!
Art & Speed offers fine collectible automobiles, from original survivor to quality driver, show, and investment cars. We specialize in muscle cars, 50s and 60s classics, as well as modern performance, luxury and exotic cars.
Through our network of resources and professional restoration services, Art & Speed can also help you locate that special car you have been searching for or build the car of your dreams.
Art & Speed not only buys quality collector cars, but we also offer a consignment program for our clients who want to sell one car or a complete collection. Employing technology, we market your car to the broadest international audience possible. Art & Speed can also assist you in changing the composition of your current collection. We offer both buyer and seller agent services and can take your car to major auction events for maximum exposure.
Kevin has been a "car guy" since he was old enough to peer out the car windows, identifying every car by year, make and model. Over the years, he has built a reputation for building, owning and selling high quality collector cars. With a background in business, information technology and digital marketing, he has continued to pursue the art of classic automobiles as a hobby. After a successful career in the corporate world, Kevin decided to pursue his dream of owning and building a "different kind of business". Kevin sees vintage, classic and performance cars as an emotional interaction, merging the worlds of performance with the art of the automobile. Thus the vision for Art & Speed was born!
