Awesome! It looks like Oldsmobile envisioned a future where everyone drove Toronados.

A terrific photo archive of an even better diorama! Thanks for sharing this Galen!

The 1966 and 1967 Toronados are certainly among my favorite cars of the 60's.

thats great Galen, thanks. Followed up and all I could find was a facebook comment with the photo:
"Oldsmobile Actionland" - 1967 Detroit Auto Show...
Toronado promos were used in this model of Oldsmobile's stand at the '67 Detroit Auto Show - "Oldsmobile Actionland" featured cars in a simulated highway scene, which covered 17,700 square feet; the show opened November 26, 1966. In this press pic with company General Manager Harold N. Metzel, all promos are Toronados except for one '58, which may have been used as that is the year Olds began experimenting with front wheel drive.
