The only one ever built 1968 Olds FWD Fouranado Oldsmobile 442
We’re looking at a 1968 Oldsmobile FWD Fouranado Olds 442. In 1968 Hurst and Oldsmobile were in the first year of the Hurst/Olds program. One of the Oldsmobile Engineers asked the Hurst Team to assist in the build of an experimental vehicle, the FWD Olds 442., and here it is.
We’re talking with the Owner Fred Mandrick. Fred’s had this car since 2012. The previous Owner had the car for 42 years! This car was in the front, or the “featured car” in 2013 at the Muscle Car and Corvette National ( MCACN ). Fred shares he first saw the car when taking to a gentleman who was putting a Hurst / Olds History book together. There was a picture of this “barn find” Front Wheel Drive ( FWD ) car and he when and negotiated a deal for the car. He restored the car completely back to its original condition.

Chrysler Corporation's value packed (entry level) model from 1946 through 1950 is the Plymouth and it comes in either of two trim choices; the P15S Deluxe and the more uptown P15C Special Deluxe. There are six body styles, including a convertible and The Woody wagon. #SpeedManual #GatewayClassicCars
