That's true, nothing is mentioned of it being a Hurst. If it's not, the price seems more in line. If it's not a Hurst, but as nice as it seems, it's still quite reasonable.

Someone is trying to pull a fast one. WRONG color scheme for a 1970 Hurst GP, wrong wheels, wrong wheel centers, NO Hurst shifter. In other words, it's an $8,000 base Grand Prix that someone is trying to pass off as a 1970 Hurst GP (272 were produced).

a drive shaft loop in a drag car with a straight-six 2 bbl. Reminds me of the guys in the early '90's that would put roll bars in their 140 hp Civics.
