The car was on a post back about a year or so ago . Rallye kid knows car said it is a true Rallye 350 original owner had it W-31 updated in 71. Don't know about the seller or anything else he states he has photos of the car on the lot form new maybe from when original owner picked car up after the transformation ?? I didnt know that when i posted it. lots of miss info on that post it ended up getting closed .

Thru out the years 1 of 1 cars have been found and he says this is 1 of 10 so no way the other 9 got away!
Wait until they find my favorite car!!!, "The Rallye 350 convertible"

a lot of people get the 33277 F-85 Rallye info and the 33677 sport coupe S info mixed up , even Fusicks on their web site has the wrong number according to Oldsmobile History center. I would like to see the photos of it back in the day .

If it was documented I would think it would be a $200,000.00 + dollar car. Rare as hens teeth or as elusive as bigfoot.

It is a non AC car & it does not appear to have heavy duty cooling, I think it should not have the fan shroud & associated top plate?

It has the Qv code engine So no its not a True from the plant w-31 . No less no more than all the w-30 cars on here that aren't w-30's . Would like to hear it run . Rallye kid did it have the thumper cam in it when you seen it? Does it look like he did work to it or was it that nice when your friend had it ?

talked to him last night He said it has the all the right stuff to make it a w 31 . Didnt see it but said it had the large damper , intake, and big cam. I didnt ask about the carb. He also said that what he put in the add was the same info we all have read on the internet about the " w-31 Rallye or not " He too said he has no Definitine paper work to state it is or isnt . the Build date has to be one of the earlyest I have seen. He talked to me for a good long time i did tell him from the start I was not a buyer and just wanted to talk cars with him he was
very nice guy on the phone for the time I spent . Not saying it is a real w 31 Rallye just that it is a interesting car like many others on here that are not as built .

What are you guys in high school? Geez why do i have to hear about how you feel about someone? I joined this forum to share information not listen to people trash others on this site. If you have a beef with someone take it offline. Beside this is OLD news you dont like him..... Greg

Thanks

Firefrost the car Rallye Kid was taking about is not this car. I own the one he was talking about,and I was told that the original owner who was from S.C. had the W350 manifold put on the car at the dealership in 71.

I stand corrected . My talk with the seller would have fallen in time frame of the old thread he said he has bought and sold the car a couple of times . Looking to get a gt500 kr . The photo he has is the one on ebay with three Rallys out front of the show room I think it is king olds .
when I googled Rallye 350 w 31 the old ugly thread came up so I thought it was the same car. Do the seats seem like a different patern for a F 85 ?
