A parking lot is a parking lot is a parking lot—unless it’s the Summit Racing parking lot. On any given day or time, the lot outside a Summit Racing store can turn into an impromptu mini car show, depending on who’s stopped by the store. On Wednesdays, we’ll share our parking lot find of the week—another benefit of being Powered by Summit Racing Equipment.
With warmer weather on the horizon, we anticipate a fresh batch of Lot Shots parking lot finds soon.
Our Lot Shots find for this week — a 1969 Oldsmobile 4-4-2 — was actually “found” in our photo archives. It was originally spotted at the Summit Racing headquarters late last summer, but the photos fell through the cracks. With its recessed, vertical taillights in the trunk lid, dual bulged hood with striping, and re-positioned quad headlights (less spacing than previous years), it’s one of our favorite 4-4-2s, so it gets its rightful feature today.
What year is your favorite Oldsmobile 4-4-2?
