Not an 88 admittedly but still a bona fide 1967 Old police package.
4 door F85 (low line Cutlass)
330 4V V8 but single exhaust.........not sure if it was low or high compression, Olds offered both at least that year. It DID have a smog pump, so it was definitely a Calif spec vehicle.
2 spd Jetaway AT.........yeah, I know, the TH 400 was RPO behind the 400 V8 in both the 442 and the more obscure Turnpike Cruise package.
Now, it gets interesting:
12 bolt rear end..........corporate GM, it did not resemble a Chevy 12 bolt.
Full boxed frame akin to the 442/convertible.
Rear sway bar
4 piston caliper power disc brakes
A coolant recovery bottle..........remember that this car was a 1967 though
And a 'police certified' speedometer but only read to 120 MPH.
It was probably an unmarked car..........the gold paint looked OEM.
