Re: Hurst Performance
Has anyone ever heard of a one off 68 or 69 442 that was built for George Hurst with the Tornado front wheel drive system? A coffee talk discussion brought this issue up. I am not referring to the any of the Hurst sponsored race cars.

Re: Hurst Performance
Yes. There was a magazine article on it but I can't think of which issue at the moment. I think it was a Hi Performance Cars issue circa 68. I'm pretty sure the car was a 68. Had those vented rims like Toronados had. I will try to find it or the magazine issue. Not to be confused with the 67-68 Hairy Olds. The car you were talking about looked like a regular 68 442 on Tornado rims. I think it was a challenge to get everything into a GM A body.

Re: Hurst Performance
I had mistakenly thought it was in a Hi Performance Cars issue from 68 but in fact it was March 1968 Super Stock. You may be able to find an issue on ebay. All I did was google FWD 442 and there it was. I saved it to my computer and Im going to print copies for myself.
