MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE

1984 Hurst Olds — 2013 X8297

Black paint frames a silver lower-body band and fine red side stripe on this Boulevard Olds. The red lines around the tires repeat that accent, making the wheel treatment one of the easiest things to compare with the silver release.

What to look for

The pictured X8297 card has the large Boulevard name above the miniature. Check the actual tire edges through the blister rather than relying on the stylized vehicle illustration.

Choosing one for your collection

Look along the wide black hood for scratches and check both red tire rings. The narrow red body stripe should remain visible where it meets the wheel openings.

A clean card does not tell you everything about the car. Inspect the roof and rear corners through the plastic as well.

Collector questions

Which detail should I check first on a loose black example?

Start with the red-lined tires, then compare the silver lower-body decoration and thin red stripe. A black body by itself is not enough.
