Just for fun I was wondering were are the 69 H/O's are at ? I know of Four of them in mn Mine ,Gary lindahl , Joe buck , three are within 20 miles of each other and I have seen. Fizzy 55 who is on here and John peck had one for sale dont know if it sold or not and still local thats 5 in MN . Have heard of a farmer south west mn that as two or three that wont part with or restore but just a rumor.

 

When you find them all I have a friend looking to buy a non air rust free one.

Great pic, no salt on that ground I take

 

My friend's got one here in Raleigh, NC - Demmer car #4.

 

Are there lots of olds down there?

I'm actually going to be in town for work the first week of november. Are there are car activities going on then in Raliegh/Charlotte??

 

No salt its ! That is from the day it was dropped off truck could not go down driveway was a double long monster.

 

Lets get him on CO .

 

I know of one in Madison NC, and the Brannans have one but not sure if it's in Oklahoma or NC currently. Supposedly one in Lynchburg VA or near- I've seen it at cruise nights up there.

 

I know of 3 in Atlanta but I've only seen one. [Joe F.] Id' say the midwest has the most.

 

I've tried but he's not a Forum type of guy. We know of the other one in Madison, NC.

 

off the top of my head, 2 in Scottsdale/Phoeniz AZ area. 1 near KC, Missouri, 1 in southern IN (Kurt Karch your 69 H/O advisor for OCA), 1 (possibly another) in northwest IN, 1 in the Chicago area and a couple outside StL on the IL side. Oh yeah, Ron Memmer in IN has one also along with one in FL that was just recently (or may still be) on ebay.

 

There is one of them down here in New Zealand.

I have one in Ky.
In boxes.....been apart and in pieces since 1976. My ownership started in 1997. Someday I will get around to it....

A couple I know of are in Ohio, and 1 other in Tn.

Sad...but true...

 

murph did you get over to the ky horse park for the h/o nat's ? do you have most of the parts for it ?

 

Not many compared to the more common cars but there's a handful. Couple of shows in Raleigh in November (11/12 at the Fairgrounds and 11/19 at Grill57). Not sure about Charlotte which is about 3 hours from me.

 

Cool! Thanks for the info!

 

firefrost,
I did make it to the HO nats this summer - very nice show. Got to meet and have my pic taken with Doc Watson. That was a special moment in my Olds experiences over the years.
As for the car, I have been collecting parts for this thing since I bought it. Fortunately, the car was about 90-95% complete when I bought it, but it was COMPLETELY apart. Even the frame was out from under it. .
Always looking for NOS parts, as I have 3 other 69's.

thanks

 

There is one local to me north of Pittsburgh, PA. He has only drove it 2 or 3 times in the last 25 years that I have known about it. I offered to keep it limbered up, but he wisely declined the offer. He is the 2nd owner, his brother-in-law bought it new.

 

I know of about 9 in the Chicago area, including NW Indiana.

there are at least 4 and probably more on long island new york

 

So Jeff do you know of how many are still on the road vs junked or crashed?

 

Actually, I have to revise my total, think it's up near 14 or more. Myself, Chuck Johnson down near Kankakee, Mike Moss & Paul Panczuk in NW Indiana. Chuck knows of one across the border in the Crown Point area I believe. Darrel Bauma, John McCarthy in Naperville, Eric in Chicago, Joe Spagnoli has 3 I believe. There is one SW of me in Joliet or that vicinity and there are 2 others I see show up at Byron for racing. Of all those in maybe a 60 mi radius of each other, I've only had 3 show up at a Hurst/Olds day, and that's because Kurt Karch from southern Indiana came up for it. Granted some may have been in restoration, but that leads into your question, it's hard to count them if you don't see them. Perhaps best guess I've seen is 1/3 up to 1/2 left??? Last time I talked to Kurt he's always surprised when he hears of an actual unrestored one popping up. So they are out there and keep turning up.

 

I have one in Hawaii. Unrestored, 50,001 miles a real beauty and its for sale. PM me if interested.

 

what part of Hawaii are you from? How long has it been out their?

 

Oahu. Four years. Car came from MI. Was put away in '76 till I purchased it.

 

How often do you see this line up on the 1320?

This thread needed some pics to represent.

First pic is from Bryon 2010,the rest are from Olds Homecoming 2009. I have more pics from local car shows,can't upload right now,computer issues,sorry.
