I think Sam said the H/O best time slip was 11.90.....my memory for picking up milk on the way home from work is bad but in this case I am pretty sure that was the number..

Big Congrats Sam! She is a beauty with wonderful history and provenance. 11.90 for stock auto is Very fast. What engine work was done on it back in the day?

I have some pics of a 68 Hurst Olds racing on Mantorp Park here in Sweden in the seventies. Now I read on Facebook that it is heading back to the first swedish owner again. He is just 70 years young !

That's the first 68 H/O I've seen running A/Stock...Mine was D/SA as were most I've seen...

Wow, what an interesting history, cool car, and pictures. Thank you for sharing with all of us. I also love the 1968 Hurst/Olds. They were so subtle in their appearance - yet were very fast cars. I thought you might appreciate this original Road Test video posted by Mike Noun. Maybe you have already seen this video but it is very cool. Mike has some fantastic videos of original Muscle Car Road tests. Thank you again for posting. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Hi guys,

This is where I found her in NY. The picture is from the day I picked her up - May 2014.



This is where she lives now in Ontario, Canada with some other W Machines.



Cheers,

Sam
