Looking For Information and Pics on 1968 H/O Prototype
As I'm finishing my 1968 convert W-30, I'm already looking for my next project. I'm looking to build a replica of the very first 1968 H/O Prototype. I have four pictures of what the car look like, but I'm always looking for more. The information I do have on the car is: Black/gold, hidden headlights, hurst wheels, a brake adjusted rear wing, 455 motor and it was a post car.
Any information to help me to make this thing close to real thing it would be great.
If any body knows of a 1968 442 post car for sale please let me know to start this project.
Thanks
Scott
1968 H/O Prototype. A couple of thing to notice. The car has repositioned headlights and turn signals with hideaway headlights. It has the ram air induction scoops, but no red fender wells like the W-30s (and production models) did. Also notice the Hurst (not Olds) wheels and lack of emblems or logos.
1968 H/O Prototype. In this shot, the headlight doors are closed.
1968 H/O Prototype. Pop-up rear deck wing deployed. It is my understanding that this was supposed to be activated by stepping on the brakes!
1968 H/O Prototype in the garage (I believe that's Doc Watson with the car).

Have you tried the Hurst/Olds club?

Not a lot of help, but here are two more photos:
Then, of course, there's the 1968 convertible:
