Here is some additional info on it.

1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Holiday 442 Coupe "Hamilton" (1 of 4)
"Hamilton" was created in 2008 for an ABC television series titled "The Prince of Motor City." It was a drama with big name talent that never made it past its pilot. Prince was described in the Hollywood Reporter as a gothic family soap inspired by Hamlet that centers on a young Harvard philosophy professor forced to return to Detroit to take over Hamilton Motors, the family's auto company, after his father's death.
The Hamilton seen here is the only one in existence and was designed by a team from the Cinema Vehicle Services Collection. Two other "Hamilton's" were being built at the time the plug was pulled on the series and were scraped.

Not sure I'd consider it cool, but certainly one of a kind. The sharp angles of the rear bumper in the rounded trunklid profile just scream "quick fab job" to me.
It does look as if the vast majority of modifications are simple bolt on - bumpers, grills, hood, wing. The rest of the car looks to be in great nick.
I'm more hopeful that the others that were in mid construction were simply de-modified and sold vice being crushed. Now that would be criminal.
