Did he mean Hurst, not hotrod? I don't know if they made a 67 hurst olds, but I know over the years they did.

no.i dont think he ment hurst.he said that it was one of like 50 or something that were specially made and raffled off. i came across a few hursts but he said that they were hotrod editions or something.

Go over to the HR magazine website. I think they have a forum. Post up. Or shoot them an email

Maybe the W30? That was a potent setup but not cheap so not many were ordered.

Like this car? 67 Olds 442 W30 (http://www.cars-on-line.com/31320.html)

I know there was a cutless called the "ram rod 350" but that was 68 only. Not really a limited edition just a speical performance package, not many were built. I believe I read about that in Hemmings Muscle Machines
