Very honoured to have been part of the eval team on both the 66 Toronado and Joes 69 Hurst Olds. Both outstanding vehicles that make our work easier. Thanks to Kurt Karch, Mr 69 Hurst Olds memory bank who knows all the assembly line part numbers by heart.
As stated to Jean the NPD collection Custodian the build quality of the Toro was amazing, literally the closed Olds would come to Hand Assembled cars in Quality. The paint was as perfect as cars coming off the assembly line today with much improved painting processes.

----Toronado's rule! I loved one thing especially on the Toro that Paul pointed out to me. When you looked at the 2nd O in the Oldsmobile emblem on the front it appeared a bit bigger than the 1st. It was a GM alarm (I think). Am I correct, Paul?....Bill S
