1983 Hurst Olds

Be ready for car show season!

This car is in excellent condition with the exception of a two flaws:

· A bubble in the paint on the hood

· The grill on the passenger side was broken. At a car show, someone pushed in on the grill and broke the back support. It has been temporarily repaired – this can be easily corrected by someone skilled in fabrication.

Information and details:

· Everything on the car is original except the radio.

· The car was repainted in 1999.

· It has won numerous awards and trophies, including being invited four years in a row to an invitation-only Best of the Best car show in Brighton, IL. All the trophies and awards will be included with the car.

· The car is from a smoke-free environment and has not been smoked in since I have owned it.

· It has been adult-driven and babied.

· I was told that most of these built were either t-tops or moon-roofs. This one is a hard-top which means it would be rare. This fact was not verified.
