Rare 1975 Hurst/Olds W-30 Project Heads to the Market

Oldsmobile and Hurst Performance teamed up again for the 1975 model year, marking the sixth time the two brands had collaborated on a limited-run muscle car since 1968. This particular example is a 1975 Hurst/Olds W-30, a car that has become a sought-after piece among collectors who appreciate the unusual styling and performance package of the mid-1970s.

Buyers of the 1975 Hurst/Olds could pick between white or black paint, and the drivetrain choices included a 350 cubic-inch V8 in either W-25 or W-30 specification. The car now listed as a barn find project is one of roughly 600 units believed to have been built, making it a relatively rare sight at auctions and swap meets.

Because it is being offered as a project, the car likely needs restoration work before it returns to the road. Even so, its Hurst pedigree and low production count give it a strong following among enthusiasts of the era’s performance machines.
