1983 Hurst Olds Debuts at MCACN

[8t3hurstolds]

I had a fantastic time at the MCACN with my '83 H/O - I was extremely surprised when the Emerald Award was awarded to us, and very proud of the Gold Level Award as well. It was also a pleasure to meet so many like minded car enthusiasts. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics/usergals/2014/11/full-19020-19040-img_0088a.jpg

Good stuff. I always liked those cars. A guy in my hometown has an 84 he bought brand new and fitted with a W31 spec 350 when it was less than two weeks old. Saw some street racing action back in the day, but still looks showroom new with around 10K on the odometer.

Thanks for looking,this car was built as a conversation piece.We had very few neg. comments at the show.We wanted to get car guys talking about these types of swaps.

My favorite interior color in these 83 h/o's is grey kinda rare...
Congrats on the award !

I remember when those hit the showrooms, very cool car for 1983, tried to get Mom and Dad to buy one! Remember the various dealer sales guys being clueless/disinterested in it

Had one with the Burgundy interior -- pulled the tranny twice before we figured out what was blowing out the front seal ... after that it was a very nice car. What a looker! TAZ
