The '69 Hurst/Olds is absolutely is my favorite old-time muscle car. There are many great ones out there. The Hurst/Olds project was actually a consolation prize to Olds because they wanted an F-body after Chevy was going to build Camaro, but got snubbed by corporate when the other F-body was given to Pontiac.
The Hurst/Olds was Olds' way around the 400 cubic inch GM corporate engine limit by saying Hurst swapped the 455's in the car, but they were actually put in on the line. Olds built the majority of the car, and Hurst finished it off. I own car #43, which is currently in the rebuild stages. There were only 906 or 912 made (depending on who you believe) so it's pretty rare. But it's not stealth. You certainly can't hide it.

But this is very high on the list.
