    A Customer of mine has a 66 F85 Holiday Deluxe Special that he's thinking about selling. Its White, Blue interior, 49,000 miles, PS, PB, about half original paint (front clip has been painted) Paint looks good from 5 feet, starting to craze on ther hood and roof, Bumpers have a few smaller garage dents, rest of the trim is really nice. Nice drive anywhere type of car.

    Any idea of the value, he's thinking about running though a Auction.

    Mike Wowk Who freakin' cares?

    Without a lot of info on drivetrain ect. I will shoot from the hip with $5500-$6500? Although I make no claims on being an expert on Oldsmobubbles

    Small? V8 and a Power Glide.

    I know what you mean about Olds, If it was a Buick I'd be all over it.

    Does the fuzzy dice come with it???? That alone could make a huge difference in value!:moonu:

    Looks like a 400E cid but I thought it should have come with a 330 cid .

    $5k-$6k looks about right

    Very nice car. My brother Rick has a similar one in triple black with a 3 speed stick on the column. From California with zero options. Needs paint, so he bought for $2500.

    I think that is a small block. The small aircleaner makes it look bigger. Is that a 2 barrel?

    May be worth more if someone investigates what a good paint job runs these days. My green 66 is in this condition with dull paint and I'm getting that redone for $4k (which is a steal for this quality work).

    Unfortunately the 66's are very difficult to clone into a 442 to get the big bucks. (front fenders). Trunk molding, tailights, complete drive train, etc. etc. Much easier on any other year.

    Run an ad on 442.com. They seem to sell well there.
