i was wondering...i have a 72' 442 it has a 350 rocket, 2 barrel rochester, turbo 350, it also has air conditioning bench front seat, column shift, traction bars and anti-sway bars...it seems like a mixture of a cutlass and 442..i was wondering if this is a rare combo or was this a typical car...all numbers match and im the second owner...72000 miles ....it is burnt orange with white stripes and white interior..all factory

Didnt know if you were still wondering about your 442, but it Sounds like you hav a stock 442.

I hav had a few, they hav had both bench seats(atuos) buckets(manual). As far as suspension they all hav tractio/sway bars.
What model is the 442, is it S or J, or SJ ?

If you hav a 4barrel w/stick 455rocket and swivle buckets, w/sport gauges, then you'd hav your self a rarer find, the 72k is good though, and if I were you, I'd keep the car Forever!
I hav 3 76' 442's now(thier all rust buckets) one day I hope to make One thats rust free, and w/455 rocket out of a 75'.

Correct me if I am wrong here, did not remember a 442 with a 350 2bbl. Possible someone cloned the 442 body stripes and emblems? Stand corrected, after some research the 350 was 1 year only option in the 72 442.

ya I hav seen several 72's w/350's, most had been switched to a 4brl.

Clone is a big possibility too, Not hard to do with a Cutlass.

After 72' the HP went down, as with many other cars at that time.
Say Good By to HP & Big Blocks
