Wow, a 3-1/2 year old thread resurrected!
Interesting car, but as I had stated over 3 years ago, this car has nothing to do with Oldsmobile Engineering, and is not a "442 prototype" as the title of this thread suggests. The car was customized by Hurst, so essentially it's a custom car.
1968 was the first year for the 455, but the W-Machines started earlier, with the 1966 442 W-30.
