Vehicle Detail

First Buyer Fell through. Need someone to buy this baby Now. NEED a buyer to get her out of here by the 31st. Make an offer. This is a limited edition 1979 Hurst/Olds W-30 I bought this baby new back in '79. She has been sitting for a few years because I havent had the time to fix her up. The engine has been rebuilt once but still has all original parts. There is a bearing on one of the shafts at the bottom of the engine that needs to be replaced but needs the engine pulled out to do it and I never had the equipment to do it. As I said she is all original inside and out. The interior needs a little work. The drivers seat leather is cracked and the carpet could use a good cleaning. When she is tuned up and running right she will get up quick and get you going. Me and the wife are moving and she is a Must Sell. The car is a V8 with a special edition dual gate Hurst automatic transmission. Her paint is chipped but still in the original white and gold two tone. The rims are limited aluminum matching gold. The pictures don't show all so if there is any specific pictures that you would like to see of the car or any iformation you want please contact me and I will respond prompltly. She is a MUST SELL. Authentication: All were built in Lansing. The only Cutlass-bodied cars built with the Olds 350 in 1979. Actually built at an Oldsmobile plant instead of Hurst Performance. These are the only year of Hurst/Olds production which were produced completely in an Oldsmobile plant and not trimmed out in a Hurst or Cars and Concepts facility. Last year for Hurst Dual/Gate Shifter. A total of 2499 were built. 1165 in Cameo White, 1334 in Ebony Black, and 537 came w/Hurst Hatch T-Tops. Hurst/Olds in '79 were the only Cutlass with W-30 stickers in '79. The Hurst wheels were actually an Oldsmobile factory aluminum wheel that was available on the 1978 Cutlass'. The Hursts wheels were painted gold, and were not on any other Cutlass in '79 but the H/O. To order a '79 H/O, you had to start by ordering a Cutlass Calais. Therefore all of the standard Calais features for that year, such as reclining bucket seats and Rallye Pack instrumentation, were standard on the H/O. In addition to the 350/350 engine and transmission combination, the Hurst/Olds package included aluminum wheels and the two-tone sport paint which were Cutlass options. Only on the Hurst/Olds however, were the wheels painted gold and was the second paint color gold. No other Oldsmobile in 1979 used that gold paint, but I believe that it was available on some Pontiacs. Also, only on the H/O were the hood ornament and rocket emblem on the header panel in black. H/O emblems were put only on H/O cars. On a "normal" Calais, these were both red. Finally, the H/O package included the Dual Gate shifter, which was installed in the standard Calais console. I believe that all of these cars had a 2.73 to 1 final drive ratio, regardless of if the axle was limited slip or not. Sport steering wheel, bucket seats, 442 suspension, and guage package was standard on H/O because it is a Cutlass Calais which had these standard. Engine Specs: Rocket 350. All had the Olds 350 V-8 and TH-350 transmission which were standard in the Delta 88 that year. These were the only Cutlass-bodied cars built with the Olds 350 in 1979. H/O did not come with true dual exhaust. Transmissions: TH-350 with Hurst Shifter. The Hurst shifter and console is exclusive only to the '79 Hurst/Olds and no other Cutlass in '79.
