Dick Smothers, of the Tom and Dick Smothers comedy team, was the driving force behind their hit television series and their racing ventures. Willard Wright was credited with helping put Dick behind the wheel of an Oldsmobile in 1968, prior to the brothers going on to compete with this 350-powered SS/F Cutlass. Hurst’s Shifty Doctor, Jack Watson, helped prepare the Smothers’ car. With a cameraman and equipment on board, Dick netted a 12.99 on his third pass in the car.

George Berejik received a call from the Smothers brothers’ lawyer prior to the 1971 NHRA Nationals, telling him that he had been dropped by the Smothers and that the Smothers name and logo had to come off the car. The Berejik team went to Indy and paid $600 to have the name and logo removed. They finally got to the gates, where the Smothers were waiting and told them that the lawyer was misinformed and to get the lettering back on the car. Berejik then spent $700 to have the name repainted! The Smothers deal lasted until the end of the 1971 season, when Oldsmobile pulled the plug. Loyed “Woody” Woodland, seen here running F/SA at Maple Grove, banged off 11.60s on a 12.20 F/S record. . Note: Your Credit Card will not be charged until the item is ready to ship! .

In the grand muscle car era, Oldsmobile offered the beefed up the 442 to offer to a performance hungry population. But Olds did not stop there as they rolled out an even more exciting performance packaged called the W30. Thanks to a special-order color that many muscle car enthusiasts would describe as sacrilegious, a 1970 442 was finished in Plum Crazy! . Olds allowed dealers to commission special-order paint for $50 (about $400 as of 2023). A dealer in Virginia Beach took advantage of this option as he wished to have a custom piece in his showroom and placed the order for the Plum Crazy color scheme. This extremely rare Oldsmobile packs all the factory W30 goodies with white stripes and a white convertible top.
