The 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Holiday Coupe 4-4-2 "Hurst Hustler" package included deluxe interior trim, foam seats, arm rests and quad tail lamps. Performance-wise it came with the 350hp 400cid V8 with 4-speed trans, 10 bolt positraction rear and special Hurst badged alloy wheels and a "Hurst Hustler" badge on the deck lid. Ready for anything, there's a pair of cheater slicks sticking out of the trunk with wider Hurst wheels. An "Oldsmobile Club of America" vanity plate on the rear is paired with club plate on the front.

That's a great model! I love the realistic hinges under the hood and the folding seats!

YEP!
I have those beautiful factory Oldsmobile mags on my 2-dr hardtop, 2-dr sedan & convertible. Nice wheels in 1/18 and 1:1 😀 😎

That's one of my all-time favorite Oldsmobiles.
IMO, it was perfect !

Nice ! This is the Highway 61 1/18th model ? If so, I happily have some fine colors of this one and the H61 1966 442, too.

Yepper-pepper Mike, all models are 1/18 HW61 Oldsmobiles. 😎

I'm totally with you on the Hurst wheels. I was never a fan. The factory-issue wheels were much nicer.
One of the things I really liked about the 4-4-2 was the proper and functionally efficient ram air unit. Unlike a lot of other cars in that era, with gimmicky and ineffective ram air systems like the silly Chevy cowl induction and the '69 Road Runner with the even more silly "ram" air scoops sitting on top of the hood, the 4-4-2 had the ram air scoops at the front of the car getting free "supercharging" horsepower.

Other than the uncharacteristic for H61 out-of-scale shifter knob and turn signal stalk, the model looks darn good! I never knew it existed, and this is the first I've seen of it.

Too bad GM let Oldsmobile die on the vine, at one time the Oldsmobile Cutlass was the top selling car in America.
I have a Lane Exact Detail 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W-30 and a Lane Exact Detail 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass convertible Indy 500 Pace Car.
