Vehicle Description
Lovers of Olds performance take notice. Here's the swan song of the
Hurst partnership. This 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Hurst/Olds with the
cool lightning rod shifter, is one of only 3,500 that were built
for the final year. So a loaded T-top coupe like this is rarely so
affordable.
We believe this is the original factory-applied silver and black,
which has an exclusive layout just for 1984. The red stripes
highlight some nice curves on the otherwise well-creased design.
Plus, the hood scoop and deck lid spoiler practically scream "high
performance." It's a design that gets to attract as much attention
as a Buick Grand National for a fraction of the price.
Inside, the Hurst/Olds got bucket seats and a proper console,
something few other Oldsmobiles of the era can claim. The burgundy
cloth strikes a nice balance between premium and aggressive,
especially when it has been this well preserved. But the real party
piece everyone will be looking at is the special three-lever Hurst
Lightning Rod shifter setup that gives full manual control of the
automatic transmission underneath. It's this special structure that
also makes the factory upgrade to a full round gauge pack so
helpful. After all, the tach will be extra helpful in this
Hurst/Olds. As a true premium coupe, it came loaded with a power
driver's seat, power windows, power locks, electric rear defrost,
cruise control, and tilt wheel. And to make sure you can cruise
with the best tunes, the radio has been upgraded to an AM/FM/CD
stereo with aux input. This one comes with the desirable T-tops,
and thanks to an upgrade to R134a air conditioning, you can take
them out and still stay as cool as you look.
This Hurst/Olds is correctly powered by a 307 cubic-inch V8. This
motor is rugged, torquey, had been properly maintained, which makes
it easy to enjoy out on the open road. Fortified with a Quadrajet
four-barrel carburetor and rumbling dual exhaust, the V8 provides
the kind of old-school muscle that few others offered in the '80s.
You saw the triple-stalk Hurst shifter in the interior, and out on
the road, it allows you to get the most out of the V8. And on days
when you want to take it easy, the four-speed can shift itself for
comfortable overdrive cruising. This one has more great features
for both cruising and performance driving such as power steering,
front disc brakes, and sway bars front & rear. It's all capped off
by those flashy Oldsmobile Rallye wheels that have a great red trim
ring to match the rest of the car, and they are mounted to proper
BF Goodrich T/A tires.
Complete with the original bill of sale and owner's manual, this is
the final year for the legend. So don't let something this iconic
and so complete slip away. Call today!!!
