On "My Car Story" we're in Scottsdale AZ on 6-15-21.
We're looking at a Less than 20K Miles Survivor 1969 Oldsmobile Hurst / Olds in White & Gold Paint. The car features the factory 455 CI H.O V8 engine and a dual gate shifter.
The car's Owner is Fred Mandrick. Fred’s had this car since 2008. He shares he’s had over 50+ Oldsmobile’s and this one being an original car with less then 20,000 original miles is why he had to have it.
ENJOY! Авто/Мото
I remember being 10 years old and picking up a paper route that included a large apartment complex with numerous buildings and parking lots to it. That is where my love affair with muscle cars started. In these parking lots introduced me to a Corvette Stingray, Olds 442, SS Chevelle, Challenger, Grand Prix SJ to name a few. On one weekend the owner of the 442 had his friend over with his 69 Hurst Olds that looked identical to this one. They saw me gawking/hanging around, talked to me about their cars, opened the hoods, finishing with tires up in smoke just for my inspiration. Memories of a 10 year old kid in the early 70s. Thanks Lou.

@@loucostabile I am subscribed, watching most commercials
I miss the days when car brands were instantly recognizable. Sure, the Cutlass, Malibu, LeMans, and Skylark shared some sheet metal, but the front and rear views made them unique. Thanks Lou! ~ John
Well Primus54, if you don't see them on the road, I have good news! You're on the right RUclips Channel to see those cars you enjoy. You're welcome, Lou
Lol, my grandsons 1966 Buick Skylark was in most respects a better car than the Chevelle. Although among his high school peers in the late 1970s it was just ho-hum. But he always thought of it as a "really cool Chevelle". Later in life he realized how right he was.
SO true ! Every car looks the same now. I was on the freeway the other day and saw a Hyundai and a Mercedes and they looked identical.
@@20alphabet When I was in high school (69-72), the “cool” cars were Mustangs, Camaro SSs, Firebird 400s, Nova SSs, Malibu SSs, GTOs, 442s, ‘Cuda’s, Challengers, Chargers, and Road Runners. If you were looking for something “different”, you might have an AMC Javelin or AMX.
@@Primus54
Lol, those were indeed the "cool cars" but high schoolers couldn't afford them. Sure there'd be that one kid who's dad would buy him something like that, but most would get what they could afford or a hand-me-down from a family member and soup it up. The Skylark had the 340 with a 2-speed Powerglide and a 2bbl carburetor. By recurving the distributor, re-jetting the carburetor, and increasing the single exhaust pipe .5" with the appropriate muffler it became a very spritely ride.
"I love the smell of tire smoke in the morning. It smells like.....Victory." Thanks Lou!
NICE ! You're welcome Brian SD
I’ve had 6 H/Os over the years ( none from the 60’s). The ‘69 is the Taj Mahal of Olds muscle. Beautiful example, thanks for sharing

Nice way yo start my day with this segment Lou. Fred has a remarkable time capsule there. Its amazing that not only all the mechanicals are original, but the belts and hoses too. Thanks for making this available to your viewers.
Hi Kevin, Happy to start you day with a fun "remarkable time capsule" :-) My pleasure sharing with you, and you're welcome, Lou
This is by far my favorite muscle car ever ! The 442's were great but this one is the top dog . Thanks for sharing Lou .
Winner! You're welcome Michael.
As usual Lou thanks for posting another of your excellent videos. That '69 Hurst Oldsmobile is one sharp looking and great sounding car!

That letter to owners from Hurst Inc. is amazing, with the various recommendations and cautions. Love the closing: "So, good luck with your Hurst/Olds ventures in 1969."
Hi Anthony C, Happy to read you enjoy this "trunk & treat" section :-) Lou
Lou! Is there another one out there that is in that good original condition?? May be the best of its kind anywhere... What a BEAST. Sort of Oldsmobile's answer to the Judge. GM A-Body's of the era imho are some of the most handsome cars they ever produced. Gr8 vid!
Hi Audie, If there is, and I see it, you'll see it too if I can find a Care Taker willing to share. Happy to read you enjoy this handsome "BEAST" :-) Lou
Had to watch it twice - Wow, what a survivor _ i don't know how you find them, but keep them coming Lou, thnx.

Incredibly Slick Survivor H/O ! I've worked on a few of these in my day including 2 other survivors and a few Pace Cars ! Great Machine ! Thanks Lou !
Hi Uncle Rudy, Happy to read this one brings back memories of the ones you've worked on :-) You're welcome, Lou
Totally agree; when a car was recognizable from a distance, and with this Hurst Olds, no mistaking what was headed your way. Glad to see & hear this particular piece of automotive history is in good hands. Wow! Under 20K miles! That’s just about mind boggling! Thanks Lou & Fred for a beautiful car this morning!
Hi Rusty, "Wow! Under 20K miles! That’s just about mind boggling!" Agreed :-) You're welcome, Lou
This Olds is about perfect! Great original car! Certainly not driven in Midwestern winters.
High praise :-)
I don't know what to say! Beautiful beyond belief! What a car!
High praise :-)
Hi Lou, great Hurst/Olds! I think the most striking aspect of the car is your opening segment where the car is a beast, juxtaposed against the final segment where you could have been riding in a garden variety Cutlass Supreme. That was the magic of the Hurst/Olds, almost a Jekyll and Hyde persona.
It’s really cool that the owner is willing to drive and show off the performance of this super rare car.
Hi Cadillac Guy, Happy to read you enjoy both sides of this car :-) My pleasure sharing with you, Lou
I rode in the back seat of a 68' just once. I'll never forget it. Very serious car!

Really cool! Love those 60s Oldsmobiles! I think they might be some of the most underrated muscle cars. Really pretty cars that go like Hell off the line. If I’m lucky enough, I’d like to acquire a mint 442 one of these days.
Hi J Pate, Happy to read you enjoy this cool car :-) Hope you're behind the wheel of the right one for you soon, Lou
What an incredible find Lou. I love those end game GM performance cars. Thanks

Thanks for this classic Olds and Car Story Lou!
Hi Jeff, Amazing people have them with so few miles....I'd have to drive it :-) My pleasure sharing this story with you, and you're welcome, Lou
Outstanding! Talk about having the right car & custodian combo, and here it is. Given the intro/opener, I'm guessing the original owner wasn't the only one who knew how to race this Olds... Thanks, Lou!

Gotta Admit. Lou this has to be in your top ten of cars presented. Wow!!
High praise John :-) Thank you.
Thank you Lou for taking us along for the ride.
My pleasure Chris :-)
This car is a beauty! It sure takes me back to my early days; a friend of mine had a beautiful '69 Hurst/Olds like this, I had a 440-6V Vitamin C Superbird, another friend had a 440-6V A-12 Roadrunner, a 396 Chevelle... so many other cars in our gang - cars that collectors drool over today.
THAT was the car culture back in the '70s.
Hi Easy Going, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Glad to read this car brings back memories of your Friends car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Love the Hurst Olds..!! Remember seeing my first sitting in a garage parking lot in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood of SF back in 85..,that hood always made it look mean. (and it was) Great find Lou, keep it going !
Hi Richard, Happy to read this is one you "love" :-) My pleasure sharing this one with you, and I appreciate the encouragement, Lou
Excellent video, amazing time piece. I turned 70 last month and you took me back to when I was 18 and had my first new car. Not any new car butea 1969 H/O. I had her for six fantastic years. Sold it to another "kid" who totalled it his first month. He survived with several broken ribs. Unfortunately the H/O was destroyed.
Thanks for the video. Much appreciated especially when someone takes such pride and care of a 1969 H/O.
Hi George, Happy to read you enjoy this "amazing time piece" :-) This one's for sale ($132K), maybe time to be 18 again? My pleasure sharing this car with you, and you're welcome, Lou
My 1st car was a 1968 Olds 442 that I bought in 1969 with 18000 miles. It had these chips in the paint on the lower dash. Later I realized ( I was an 18 year old kid working 12 hours a day 6 days a week at Strathmore Paper factory) that the chips aligned with the 2nd to 3rd power shift so violent that it chipped the paint. It was a 400ci. Never had a problem other than the miserable Quadrajet 4 barrel which was junk. When I got drafted I sold it to a friend who has it to this day. In basic trainng for the Army we used to say in cadence, "Ain't no use in looking back. Jodi has your Cadillac. Ain't no use in feeling blue. Jodi has your girl friend too."

Such a nice survivor car this is with that kind of mileage too. I remember those Hurst cars in the day. Really has great power and sound to this unit. Loved the colors Hurst used on the units. A very nice and fun owner too he is.Just a fun video Lou! Thanks for sharing with us!
Hi Steve, Happy to share this rare drive in this car, and glad to read you had fun with me on this video :-) You're welcome, Lou

You're a lucky man to be able to ride in time machines such as this 442! What a beautiful survivor. Thanks for taking us along on the rides, which is the next best thing to being there.
Hi cookcars1, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this Survivor :-) I agree, I do feel lucky to ride in one like this, and I'm glad I can share it with you. You're welcome, Lou
So cool that he drives it what a find Lou you never disappoint.
Hi derwood 454, Happy to get this one out for a rare ride and share it with you :-) Lou
The opener was so good, I played it a couple times. Cars of today might be lots faster, but NOTHING of today sounds like that!
Hi Adam, Happy to read you enjoy the sounds of the opener :-) Lou
Hi, Lou! The Hurst/Olds had a rather sporadic history, actually coming and going no less than four times. It first appeared for 1968-1969, then reappeared for 1972 when it served as the Indy pace car, and a small number of replicas were sold by Olds dealers that year. It continued with the restyled "Colonnade" Cutlass body from 1973 to 1975 (with the '74 serving as another pace car), disappeared again, then saw a brief revival in 1979, a year after the Cutlass was downsized. The final Hurst/Oldses were made in 1983-1984.
You're right about Fred's car being a real time capsule. I think its great when people get to see any car as the folks who drove them back in their day remember them. The first generation Toronado was still in production at that time, and all late-Sixties Oldsmobiles seemed to have at least a little bit of the Toronado in them, particularly in the front fender details. I find the shifter details on Fred's car particularly interesting too.
Incidentally, our 2014 ISWC convention had a Hurst-equipped 1969 Cutlass wagon in attendance. The owner's father bought it new and personally ordered it with the Hurst shifter, and the owner doesn't know of any others that had one.
Thanks to you and Fred for taking us on this amazing Hurst ride! 455 CU...L8R!
P.S. 13:44 MEEP! MEEP! BTW, that is the state bird for Fred's neighbors in New Mexico.
Hi iswc27, The state bird in New Mexico, I did not know that, thank you for sharing, Lou
That was awesome, I have only ever seen one other. There’s a little town not too far from me and a guy there has one and it used to show up at local car shows. Have not seen it in probably 25 years don’t know whatever happened
Hi Doctor Wacky, Happy to read you found this video & car "awesome" :-) Thanks for sharing that this one brings back memories of the one the guy used to bring to the local car shows, Lou
Fred has one awesome Hurst Oldsmobile. I ❤ the tire squeal at the beginning of the video too! Music to my ears👂👂
I'd pick a place with a nice Stop sign, then light the rear tires. If a police officer stops me I'd say officer. I thought Stop meant S.queal T.ires O.n P.avement
Hi James, Happy to share the "rubber music" with you :-) Lou
Is that a gloriouse car or what? Back when American muscle cars ruled..
Hi Sito, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) Lou
What a great car Lou. There is nothing like a low mileage survivor big block muscle car, especially a Hurst Olds 442. Beautiful scenery in Arizona also.
Hi Randy, Happy to read you enjoy this car & video :-) Lou
I had a friend with a 1969 Hurst Olds and another with a 1968 HEMI GTX....watching those cars cruising on I75 in Michigan was amazing!
Hi Earl, Ahhhh, good times :-) Lou
She's a beauty, 69 H/O has been my favorite dream car since I had my first 69 cutlass back in 86. That's a nicely optioned car , tinted glass on a non ac car with power brakes and steering . I've had a chance to talk to several original owners of 69 H/O and to stories stood out to me. From the guy who had to take the Olds dealer to a rail car to prove to him that it was a thing so he could order his, to the first one I saw in real live. Sitting in a field with signs ( trespassers will be shot ) I had to hope the fence to get a better look and got to meet the owner. 69 yr old lady who had bought it new and only drove it about 1000 miles a year at that point .it had about 69,000 miles on it and needed a restoration but was still all there. Great memories , nice car!!!
Hi Robert, Happy to read this one is a "dream car" :-) Glad to read you had a fun Cutlass too, Lou
I love Oldsmobiles and this one is a Gem Lou 👍
Hi David, Happy to read you enjoy this "Gem" :-) Lou
I owned a 69 Olds 350 at 16 without a dent or scratch. Yours is a very nice, original H/O car, Lou. I like it.

Good to see a video on Olds where the engine was not reffered to as a BIG block. All Olds V8's from 65 were the same block with variations on deck height 262 and 307 in the 80's. Thank You for sharing this awsome car video!

I was hoping that you and Fred would show how that shifter worked. Fred is right on feeling like he's in 1969 when he's driving the Oldsmobile. I always feel like I'm back in 1973 when I'm driving my Duster. My Uncle used to drag race in the 1960s and 1970s and he always told me that you didn't want to mess with a Oldsmobile or Buick or Pontiac that had a 455 under the hood. Great video as always Lou.
Hi PlymouthDuster225, Ahhh, you're right, I missed that showing the shifter. Sounds like your Uncle had some fun :-) Lou
@@loucostabile yes he did. Got to travel to alot of different places.
Gorgeous muscle car and gorgeous scenery... Definitely my favourite Olds. I love that Hurst styling and white-gold combination. So cool!... And that Road Runner!;-D
Hi Plymouth Die-Cast Replicas, Happy to read this one is a favorite Olds for you :-) Lou
Always one of my favorite muscle cars, the Hurst Olds!!! The '69 just looks more rugged and high performance compared to a 1970. Loving the trend lately where the owners really hammer on their rare and classic muscle cars, driving like they were meant to be driven, tires squealing and engine howling!!! Another good one for sure Lou!!!
Hi Hobiemarty, Happy to read this is a favorite muscle car of yours :-) Glad to take you along for the ride, Lou

Hi Mike, Just the way we like it :-) Lou
I remember a guy one of these that was silver with trumphet bugle exhaust. Sadly it stopped running and he parked it. Then his nephew fresh from the service bought it from his Uncle.. The nephew drove it but it was in badly need of repair. Then one day it was gone. Same model at the one in this video with the wing on the back. I recently saw one a friend had but it was automatic on the collar with side moldings. Not sure they came like that. But it’s badges say 442. But still a beautiful car but needed to be restored. But back in the day the muscle when you spot them, you just stare in disbelief that at one time it wasn’t about the safety features it was about thunder meets the road and the tail lights as the vanished from sight..

Hi Lou, thank you for one more great video! And those screaming sounds will not let the driver fall asleep! :) I like this car. I always had a question, why they come up with this Brand's name Oldsmobile? I am sure this car looked very contemporary at that time. The name of this brand reminds me of the name of the bank in my area: Old Second Bank! If I had the power to rename this brand I would call it CoolMobile.
Oldsmobile was named after its founder, Ransom Eli Olds.. After starting Oldsmobile he went on to start another car company named after his initials, REO.

Openers like that should be mandated or even womandated. My dad's '67 F-85 stripdown 4-door with the 6-banger was painted that same ivory color. That's probably the best-looking rear end year for the Cutlass line-up. No other division had a more elegant design for '69 on their intermediates, methinks

Goodday Lou,
Absolutely brilliant, you know I am the biggest Oldsmobile fan in Australia, my next die cast is this particular model.
The original Hemi Slayer, 2 years before Chevy, Poncho or Buick were putting BB in the intermediate models.
Considering there were more than
900 sold Oldsmobile knew there was a neche for a BB intermediate A Body GM's & they delivered in spades.
Any chance of a 1968 W 31 Ram Rod in the arsenal in Arizona.
Absolutely gorgeous, fantastic.

That throaty burble really sells this car.
I'm not a fan of that fastback styling. I was shocked at how radical it seemed when they came out with it in 1968. Most years Olds featured notchback styling in the Cutlass/442 lineup, which I prefer. Still, this car is special and the fastback styling suits it.
