Message: PICS (1:1) The ONLY one I've ever seen, Brian, is this spectacular unrestored 73,979 original...... mile example that sold on eBay Motors for a mere $6,200 back in December of 2006. And with only 4,445 every built, it's highly unlikely that I'll ever see another.... These interior shots show that Pontiac wasn't the only GM division to offer three tone interiors. Olds went them one one better by not only offering a third color, but a fancy patterned cloth brocade insert to boot.... BTW, that's real leather, too, front and back.... Chrome "top bows" evoke memories of the first Caddie and Olds pillarless hardtops in '49.... An unique "rearview".... P.S. '61 is my favorite year for the full size Olds' in this decade. PLEASE SUPPORT THE ZONE!
