Here are some picures of my recently aquired 442. It needs a little work here and there but seems to be in decent shape. I have posted some questions over in the main forum

What doesn't look right, other than the 442 emblem is missing, the grill looks completely blacked out and it has one of those rare 30 degree angled antennas?

Actually, that's the top of the bumper unless your eye sight is better than mine? Or are we looking at different things?

Looks like the top of the bumper has been dulled or painted. Maybe just the angle.

The chrome is very dull on the front bumper, should I take some pics at different angles? I am a bit confused at what looks odd although I'm very new to the 442's

I am a bit disppointed in the 330 under the hood, but other than that I think it was a decent deal. the car really runs and drives great. Any ideas what a car like mine usually goes for? I am still heavily thinking about building a 455 with either a 4 speed or newer model AOD for it while putting around in it for the time being. I'd like to incorporate disc brakes, better suspension, lower the car slightly with modern set of possibly 18 inch wheels, adding air, and doing some slight modern touch's to the interior, such as steering wheel, guages, center console, etc
