1969 Hurst Olds 442 Clone Cutlass Frame Off Restored on 2040-cars

Hello, I have for consideration a 1969 Hurst Olds clone. This is for the aficionado who wants one of the 916 '69 Hurst Olds converted from 442s who does not want or could afford to pay the full retail price, or someone who just wants to turn heads while cruising. This car was meant to be driven.

This example of Oldsmobile history had started life as a 69 Cutlass S. The original paint code is Cameo White like all the 69 Hurst Olds. The body was removed from the frame and stripped to metal. Metal was used for damaged areas. The fame, suspension components, and core support were sand blasted and painted chassis black. Reassembly included new bushings for the body and suspension, new correct  brake and fuel lines were used, a complete new disc brake system was installed along with all new brake hoses, and rebuilt rear brakes. To keep things cool, the radiator was replaced with a new unit, The air conditioning system was upgraded with a rebuilt compressor, new expansion valve, drier, and blower motor. The 455 Olds engine was professionally rebuilt with 1970 "E" casting heads and factory manifolds. The engine power is transferred to the back via a rebuilt transmission and torque converter. Exhaust pulses are dampened by a new exhaust system bellowing out twin trumpet tips just like the original Hurst Olds.

The exterior of this fine specimen includes the full Hurst Olds appearance such as the special mirrors, the rear wing, and the infamous scoop with the correct air cleaner that forces air down the carburetor's throats. All bright work looks great with new bumpers fore and aft. New grilles were placed to preserve the crisp and fresh look. The base coat/clear coat finish was completed nicely by a local paint and body shop.

For the creature comforts the cabin, all seat coverings, carpet, headliner, package tray, window cranks, and side panels were replaced. The dash is near mint adorning the wood grain applique and Hurst Olds insignia on the glove box door. All the vents and ductwork were cleaned before reassembly. For proper muscle car full instrumentation, factory appearing reproduction gauges were installed. The original Hurst Olds utilized a "His and Hers" Hurst Dual Gate shifter. A reproduction shifter was installed in the floor in similar fashion as the car paid homage. Controlling the direction of the ride is a reproduction wood styled steering wheel as offered by Doc Watson. The pavement contacts new tires placed on 15" rims. There are many more items that have been added and services performed to this vehicle that we may have forgotten to add to this listing or didn't want to bore with too many details. 

This is not a 1000 point/100% show car. This is a car built to be a driver. There may be a few parts that may not be exactly as original to 1969 vintage. This is a Hurst Olds clone, which means that this is a car that looks like a Hurst Olds. This is not a real Hurst Olds or real 442, but it has  the options that these cars had from the factory. By the way, this car was purchased from the original owner. A copy of the original title is available. 

Here are two videos starring this very car. This was a  windy day here in Texas.
