Guest Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Has anyone ever heard of a "Holiday" version of the 1968 Skylark?? I have heard of Holiday in relation to Oldsmobile.....but never 1968 Skylarks. How can you tell if a Skylark is a Holiday? Any info is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NTX5467 Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 I concur that "Holiday" was the nomenclature for an Oldsmobile hardtop vehicle.<P>As for the '68 Skylark, it could be it was a special edition that was put together by a particular dealer group for a sales promotion of sorts. Those things usually were particular equipment packages and such for a specific sales event and could have included non-stock (for that year) GM paint combinations. Several possibilities there. How does the VIN decode?<P>The Dallas Bold Men of Olds dealer group cut a deal in the early '70s where they got Olds to build them a Cutlass "S" coupe with the upscale Supreme front fenders and grilles. We never knew of them to exist anywhere else but down here. The VIN said "Cutlass S Coupe" but the body said "Cutlass Supreme" although the badging was for a base Cutlass with no "Supreme" nameplates. Caused some problems for unsuspecting body shop and parts guys who didn't know what the deal was. The dealer group did that deal successfully for several years.<P>Enjoy!<BR>NTX5467 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
