Re: Hurst Engineered FWD '68 Olds 442 Uncovered
In reading the various post the ROP guys got their knickers in a knot because the guy said he bought the car from a dealer. Maybe he did. The car was likely owned by Hurst and had no ties to Olds as far as ownership is concerned. They obviously stated with a stock 442 and did the mods themselves. This is no different than the 64 GTO modified by Wangers and Royal Pontiac for the Car and Driver test. That car was later sold by Royal.
If Olds had modified the car,their lawyers would have insisted that it be destroyed because it was experimental.
Its cool to see this thing still alive. Many Hurst owned cars have surfaced over the years.
