Description:

1968 Oldsmobile 442

Here you go. I believe the fastest Oldsmobile ever made. 1968 Hurst Olds. 1 of 515 Hurst Olds made in 1968, and 1 of 56 Sports Coupe, 2 door post or 2 door sedans made. The post car was the most rigid, and the lightest car of the 442 models. This is a non-air car. W-45. D Heads. Correct heads, intake, carb, distributor, water pump, pulleys and alternator. The block is NOT numbers matching, as the original block was destroyed racing from Amarillo to Dallas. The dealer replaced the block. Even the oil fill tube was put back. The original owner is alive, and I have his contact information. The second owner passed away. The second owner drove this car to high school in 1970. Engine block had already been changed. Second owner put in the diamond tuck interior, and just cover over the original interior from what I can see. Second owner parked in 1976. It has been in storage until last year. This is a very rare car, and a rare opportunity. Currently the front clip, windshield & interior has been removed to start restoration. I know this is not ideal, but you can see more of the car and also see just how solid it is. I have the protecto plate and warranty card. I also have all Hurst Olds registration documentation, as the car is listed in the registry. This is number #329. I reserve the right to end the auction early. The car is for sale locally. Someone has a standing offer of $26K, but I believe the car is worth more. I would rather complete the sale outside of ebay, but if the auction ends then so be it. If I get a strong offer and the auction is about to be deleted or pulled, I will give the current high bidder a chance to buy. Please come see the car in person or send someone to represent you before the auction ends, as once the auction ends and you are the high bidder you own it. I will accept a deposit of $500 through PayPal. If you have questions, please call 405-923-6343. The car can remain here for storage, but call to discuss length available. I will also help load the car.
