Steve Proffitt’s first ’65 442 was his ride back in 1967. When he returned from Vietnam in 1970, he decided to trade for a new Plymouth Duster. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but Steve soon regretted the swap. Unfortunately, family priorities kept another Olds out of the garage until 1995 when Steve and his son discovered the perfect candidate in a barn in Colorado. Once the black widows were brushed away, the 442 went into the family garage where it stayed for five years while Steve and his son went through every system, repaired the body, and dropped in a new 400ci Olds full of Mondello Performance goodies and an Edelbrock intake converted to EFI. In the past 11 years since its completion, the Olds has been to many Goodguys and NSRA shows, and out to Reno for Hot August Nights. It was during one of those trips that the Proffitt family stopped off at the Bonneville Salt Flats to snap some photos. Great location guys; it’s hard to shoot a bad photo at Bonneville! The 442 may be on the road, but Steve says he tries to add something new every year. Next up will be a baffled gas tank to keep fuel near the pickup during cornering.
