Default Re: Nice '68 Hurst Olds on eBay

Personally, I love 69 H/O's.

In an old February 1970 issue of Hot Cars Magazine, they had a list of "The Worst Lemons from Detroit". This magazine was absolutely brutal in their analysis. They never minced words, and they REALLY didn't like wings and stripes. They bashed the laser stripes on the Torino, the rear wing and stickers on the 69 Judge, the 69 Dodge Daytona, you name it, anything with flash or flare was fair game. They even called the 70 442 fat and ugly. Not surprisingly, advertisers began to shun the magazine, and they folded.

This attachment is from their "Lemons" issue. SmallHurst, this is not for the faint of heart.

But for me, I think the 69 H/O personified the Musclecar Era, and I love them.
