If I didn't have Oldsmobile history burned into my cranium I'd like this one more.

Honestly, it is very well executed. There was a lot of money put into this, and all of the work is very well done.

I agree that a '68 Hurst Olds paint scheme would have looked better, but the white and gold is pretty, too. I would have preferred that the owner not badge it with H/O, but it is not like they are trying to fool anyone. I don't like the badging since it doesn't make any sense beyond using the H/O paint scheme. Put a "Hurst Equipped" badge on the trunk and leave off the rest of the badges.

The Pro Touring design looks top notch.

LS1 Fuel Injected
A/C
Push Button Start
Overdrive transmission
Backup Camera
Touchscreen Display
Tubular Front End Suspension
Coil Overs
4 Wheel Disc Brakes

I wonder what the reserve was? At $31k, it wasn't meant.

Gotta be over $50k, don't you think?

I think this empty space could have been better dealt with, considering the thought and effort that went into the rest of it. But like I said earlier, I like the execution.

I would add headrests to the front buckets. Just for safety reasons. No headrests = bad whiplash even in a small fender bender

One can add the 69 HO Ram-Air hood scoops and wing to complete the 69 HO tribute look OR just remove the HO emblems and leave it as a 68 Cutlass.

That vacant space on the dash could be used for future gauges or something.
