    Oldsmobile did have a unique look on many of their 67-68 cars. To me, they look horrible with the inboard headlights so far away from the outboard headlights. I would take any other American manufacturer's 67 mid size equivalents to the 67 Olds shown here.

    Might as well include the car on the far left also then you would have all the body styles in the stable!....Oldsmobiles Rule!

    I didn't see the fourth one.

    Edit: That fourth one was a '66. Grandpa Fred's last car he bought was a '66 4-door sedan. I rode in the trunk once, with a lawnmower, so that the trunk lid wouldn't bounce. We only went five blocks, but it certainly was fun!

    Good eye! You know, I don't recall EVER seeing those wheels on any car, on the street - only in pictures.

    We had a customer with a Dodge (Coronet? He only had pics) that came with a factory set, but he never drove on them. For whatever reason KH wheel lug nuts would loosen during driving.
