THIS GREAT OLDS HAS BEEN JUDGED BY O 1979 Oldsmobile 442 W/30 by now this great cars was called simply the Hurst/Olds. It was based on the Cutlass Calais coupe. It used the L34, Oldsmobiles 5.7 L (350 in) V8 engine with the Hurst Dual Gate shifter as standard. After a 3 year hiatus, the H/O returned in 79 on GMs newly downsized Cutlass body. The first H/O to be built entirely by Oldsmobile Division and it was the only GM G-body to offer a 350 V8 in 79. White and black again were the color choices, but with a wider choice of interior trims than ever before. Gold paint covered the hood, most of the top, and the very rear of the trunk. The aluminum wheels were also painted gold, along with the grille. If 2,500 or more were built, the engine/transmission combination had to be certifie d specifically in that particular model. The R code Olds 350 engine in combination with the TH-350 transmission had already been certified in the 88 models for 1979, so legally that same combination could also be used in the Cutlass body without specif ic certification as long as less than 2,500 were built. Thats why 2, Hurst/Oldsmobiles were produced. This great example scored over 950 points in an Olds Club show for being so true to original and you can enjoy this great Hurst/Olds today fo r only $13950.
