Fully restored to exact factory specifications, this features multiple options including the functional outside air-induction hood and the two ultra-rare option combinations of factory air conditioning and 4-speed transmission. With a 455/340hp engine, this rare car is one of only 1,304 442 convertibles built in 1971. Only 183 had 4-speed Muncie transmission and even fewer with air conditioning. All options are factory-installed and documented by the Window Sticker. The unique 44 is disclosed in the VIN, proof positive of its authenticity.
The letter 'M' is also notable as it represents the Lansing, MI plant where the car was assembled and the only plant to build 442s also indicated on the Trim Tag. It retains its matching-numbers engine with factory-correct intake manifold and carburetor, thermostat housing, water pump, Delco alternator, power brake booster and master cylinder, A6 air conditioning compressor, fully restored factory air conditioning evaporator, and HD Harrison radiator. All that power and torque is put to work by a correct restored M-20 4-speed and posi-traction 3:42 performance gear rear axle. Trumpet exhaust tips emerge from the unmistakable 442 cutout rear bumper.
It has been treated to a no-expense-spared meticulous and comprehensive frame-off rotisserie nut-and-bolt restoration to the highest degree, evidenced by its gorgeous finish and laser-straight body finished in the original GM color, Matador red with Cameo White stripes. Everything on this 442 is new or completely rebuilt. Significant options including power steering, power disc brakes, power top, AM/FM stereo, super stock wheels, wide ovals with chassis handling package, bucket seats, console, tilt wheel, hood, deck and side stripes, sport mirrors with remote driver's mirror, sport steering wheel, tinted glass, Rally Pac gauges and Tic-Toc-Tach.
