These only came in one color, interior and
exterior, and the interior options were severely
limited (rumor has it the seats were actually not covered at all).
Power plants would not pass today's "sniff" test.
I'd like to see somebody try turbo-charging one of
those models.

Has anyone on the net got one of these restored?

No, but my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-
great-great-great-grandpappy did, back in the 1600's.

If you happen to go to my beautiful city of Philadelphia and you want to see
an example of this old Olds, then go to  the Museum of the University of
Pennsylvania. I'm pretty sure they have at least a partially restored example
of one (What do you expect from good old Philly :-) )
