WTF is an 80 in that shape doing in the wrecker. Bumper, header and grill are 1 year only parts. Donovan needs a parts car right ?? I searched high and low 20 years ago for a set of grills that nice for my car.

Looks a lot like my daughter's 79 Hurst Olds would that be an 80 442? Someone get me the gold paint code off it please actually can someone take a picture of the trim tag for me?

Guys, I've seen this thread now and will officially be heading out first thing in the morning to check it out.
Chances are it's a clone, but still worth the trip to find out.

I don't really NEED anything off of it, but I'm always on the lookout to upgrade parts I already have.
The grilles may be one, I'm also thinking of grabbing the carb off it if it's still there.
I'm also in need of a posi for my 8.5, does anyone know what rearends came in REAL '80 442's??

Clutch, I will grab as much info off of it for you as I can, and will report back with pics.

Anyone else in dire need of anything off this car? Speak now or forever hold your peace...

That 80 would have the 7.5 rear axle.

That's kinda what I suspected.
Thanks for confirming.

Now that is not saying someone may have swapped one in over the years.

True enough.
Oh trust me, I'll be going over this thing with a fine tooth comb!
