1967 "Hurst Olds"...

Of course, it's a Fremont car.

Three speed post with bench seat would have been the least expensive 442 in 1967 if it's real. Gotta love the valve cover orientation. And how hard is it to get the right air cleaner decal? Fremont build, NY registration, and the car's in FL.

I think since so many internet images show the valve covers backwards, it's become the correct way to install them......��

That is the most ghetto 442 grille I've seen yet. Don't glue a 442 badge onto a Cutlass bar!

Also is that the wrong door panels on a post car? Didn't post cars have door panels that stopped at the trim?

In the 1967 model year, the 442 option was only available on the Cutlass Supreme models, which got the full door panels, even on Sport Coupes.

Not true, 67 442 Sport Coupes were not full door panels and were of a different pattern than the non post Supremes.

A.I.R. holes in the head plugged with pipe thread plugs? Interesting.

All 67 W-30 cars had C heads with the A.I.R. holes all ready drilled and plugged unless it was the one car that had the complete system on it.

It's a Fremont car, so it likely was originally sold in CA and came with A.I.R. for emissions reasons.

Upholstery on the seats was also different.
