-- 1970.5 Ford Falcon
-- 1970 Barracuda coupe and Challenger Deputy
The GT-37 was somewhat the appearance of the stillborn ET, the car that evolved into the Judge. It played dual roles as a cosmetic supercar (standard 350-2) and Road Runner-fighter (thanks to the 400). The 400-2 also was available.

I figured I'd get you to dig out the documentation.😎
Good job on research. That's why I tell people you've become a proper automotive historian. You and Walt Gosden should meet if you haven't already.

Does anyone know about the 1971 Rallye 350 seen in the Product Selling Information binder?
Does anyone have a copy of the 1971 Product Selling Information Binder that might contain additional images and information on what seems to be the planned 1971version of the Rallye 350?
If so, would kindly share the images and information.

I only stumbled upon the image when I read a For Sale posting for a 1971 Dealer Product Information binder. One of the included sample pages showed the 1971 Rallye 350. I asked the seller to send an image of the entire page, and any others that might have additional images or information on the Rallye 350, but I did not receive a response.
Seems Oldsmobile was planning on at least another year for the Rallye 350. The revised striping looks interesting. Wonder if additional colors would had been offered, not unlike with the Rebel Machine, GSX, Judge, and Trans Am, that were only offered initially in one or two colors then offered multiple colors.

Never have I heard of a '71 before. Outstanding find!
FWIW, I'm not sure I'd consider the Trans Am or GSX in the same vein in respect to having a color (or two) and then an expanded palette later in the year. The Judge and Rebel Machine, yes. But I catch yer drift.
