Oldsmobiles at SEMA 2013

I just got back from the SEMA show in Las Vegas and I only saw 2 Oldsmobiles the whole time. I did not see every square inch of that place but these were the only two I found.

I love the wheels on that 65, and the wheels on the 68 couldn't be worse.

'68 oddly has the stripes almost correct... but a Cutlass hood?

442 hood did not sport the "Oldsmobile" script.

I saw em both there -- almost barfed at the sight of the 68. There was an absolutely beautiful 41 coupe with modern day running gear in the Central Hall. I have pix but haven't downloaded them from my phone yet. will post when I get it done. You are correct --- not very many Olds === Losta "rice-grinders" though!!

Yes the 68 was sad, I did see the other Olds inside but it is hard to get pictures of whole cars inside because of too many people. It was in the House of Colors booth I think. Did you see my 1964 Corvair van outside in the front?

This is one of the most tastefully done customs i have seen for a while...
The wheels are really fitting, as well as the whitewalls, and the color just pops!
