I say leave it in *as raced* trim...there are enough restored examples already out there...

Re: 1968 hurst old drag car found (quick silver)
 

I second that! Much more unique if restored as raced. Smaller market if you are looking to sell it but much more interesting if you are going to hang on to it. My $.02

Amen to that. Restore it to the as raced condition when it was new, though. Many of these got chopped up after they went to the second or third owners and beat on every Friday and Saturday night. The way the dealers set them up for racing (with a lot of inside help from Olds Engineering) doesn't hurt the value at all and in fact, may increase it without going the Bloomington resto path.

Worth more to me restores stock....Go make a clone and go racing. NOt many Hurst/Olds

Re: 1968 hurst old drag car found (quick silver)
 

the car is in such great condition, i am going to put it back together as a race/street car and just repaint it, the interior is perfect and needs nothing, i have way to many projects going at this point to go any further than that, But if the car doesnt have a significant race history i agree it should be restored.

Ooops Rich ...

I responded to your PM before seeing this post. DOH !!! I'm due for a call to Rich Powers (Olds engine builder back in the day), so what a better excuse than to ask him about "Quick Silver" .......

Re: 1968 hurst old drag car found (quick silver)
 

Calls have been placed. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif It looks like it was a SS/CAutomatic car ?
