Oh I forgot to mention my dream car - 72 Hurst Olds Indy Pacecar Hardtop with the factory power sunroof and the Hurst dual gate shifter - only 220 ever built. I had the opportunity to acquire one for 30k from Volo Auto Museum about 1 1/2 years ago. My Fiancee and I are kicking ourselves for not buying it.

Hurst/Olds Cutlass
56th Indy 500
May 27, 1972
Oldsmobile had paced the Indy 500 just two years earlier with the 4-4-2, but in 1972 teamed up with Hurst Performance Products to build a modified Cutlass convertible that is most often referred to simply as the "'72 Hurst/Olds". It was the first time in Speedway history that an automotive parts manufacturer's name was included in the pace car title. The car's 455 cubic inch V-8 produced 300hp. The Hurst/Olds was driven by Jim Rathmann, his second time behind the wheel of the pace car.

Only 629 Hurst/Olds Cutlasses were manufactured in 1972 — 130 convertibles and 499 hardtops. These cars came with a slightly less powerful 455-ci engine that produced 270 horsepower. In addition to the Cutlass, about 50 Delta 88 Royale convertibles were also used as Indy 500 parade cars.

Ya space I have that diecast! I love the Olds Cutlass 442s from 68-72 (especially the Hurst editions)! I have 4 Olds 442 die cast cars - among a vast number of other american muscle car die cast. I need to take pics of my collection.
