Re: 72 H/O Olds
This car is optioned very much like a '72 HO that my best friend in high school won on a bet (yes a bet) with his father. We picked up our new '72 442 from Nortell Olds and the dealer showed the two of us the information on the new HO. He asked his dad to buy him the HO and his father later said to him that if you win class President for senior year, I'll get you that car you wanted. We spread the word at school and everyone voted for him and his dad kept his promise. He bought my friend a new '72 HO. It was a non W-30 motor with AC. No windows and no posi, the dealer installed an AM/FM 8 track in place of the AM radio. Could this be the same car??? We put glass packs on it in 1973.
We would park his HO next to our family orange 442 in the school parking lot. I have no idea of the VIN of his car. His last name was Minucciani and he was the original owner.
