Nice ! A beautiful and powerful mid-size Olds. Highway 61 did both the '66 and '67 442's in 1/18. My H61 '66 442 is silver with a black vinyl top ...... a very stylish look !

Mike, I have both the 66 and 67 by Hwy 61. They are both very nice models.

The '67 442's I have from H61 are a blue one and a red version. You are exactly correct, Bob, the '67's as well as the 1966 Olds 442's from them are really nice ! I suspect that Highway 61 planned from the beginning to be able to offer both of these and share tooling and development costs ..... if so, a clever and cost-effective move that gave us 2 terrific Olds muscle cars.
