Olds 442 Trans Am Party Time


A tale of a 26 year old British immigrant's trip across country in a driveaway ’68 Olds 442 convertible.
AAAcon told me, basically, “You have seven days to get this car to California by whatever route you choose. We have taken your photograph and fingerprints, and if you don’t deliver on time, we’ll report you to the FBI. Now get out of here.”

Another great Link from Bruce.

  1. I knew a guy in Finland who had one of these. He would cruise it repeatedly around our little one-horse town on an island in the middle of the Baltic sea.
    The opportunity for thrills was fairly sparse.


    Back in the Seventies, we'd browse through 'vacation work U.S.A.', and I'd dream of a road-trip like this, but my difficulty was that i didn't have enough money to get to the u.s.a.
