I have a 74 Omega "S" it has a 4 spoke streering wheel and auto floor shifter with console. I don't know about 73 but in 74 the only standard offered was a 3 speed according to my shop manual, it could be a column or floor shifter with a console, but it does not say anything about Hurst.

So does this mean that the shifter is for sale? Please let me know if you are interested in parting with it. If it is indeed a '69 Hurst Dual Gate.
Thanks
Duane

You might look more closely at the console, I have seen an aftermarket dual gate with a plastic box that is similar to the small Hurst Olds console. John

Unfortunately no such vehicle (Hurst Omega) was manufactured by Olds.
Sounds like someone may have installed the console after the fact.
