From the front bumper with scoops for the Ram Air 3x2 to the rear trunk compartment with the battery mount makes this car ridiculous. Every time I see this photo of the battery in the trunk it reminds me of a wrecking yard I was in, in the very early 80’s. Looking for GTO items in the GM section I come across a 442 with the battery cables and battery tray still in the trunk. No, I did not remove it as I was on a mission for goat parts ….. idiot me.

But I have a question. If this were a Chevelle it would have a spatter painted trunk unless it was built at Oshawa (Canadian). Is this Olds Canadian built, or did US built Cutlasses have body color trunks??  Bill W

Hi Bill,
Yup, this unsuspecting two tone paint W-30 is a very unique cool car. The 1964 Tempest Series cars which includes the GTO had the trunks painted body color. 1965 and beyond were spatter painted. As for the Oldsmobile Cutlass in ‘66 I’m not sure. Maybe an Olds guy will chime in. Below are several ‘64 trunks. Sunfire Red Saddle Bronze Marimba Red
