Hi Bill - I know nothing more about it, other than how the ad appeared. In the Swinging 60s, a Cutlass (442?) was campaigned on the drag strip doing exhibition runs. Smoking all four tires down the length of the track, the driver wore a gold tuxedo, I believe. It was called the Hurst Hairy Olds, and utilized the then new Toronado front drive, with an extra engine/transaxle in the rear.I think this car had twin 1000hp 425 inch engines, and I bet Chad knows more about it, being a drag race man. I have always wanted to build one.
