I think this should be a sticky, and it would give the community the history of olds and their concepts/OSV.
It is a long article, I only browsed, but def has a lot of info, and would def help those who wish to try to rebuild some of the concepts.

Good article, but most of which I knew already and it left out some stuff too, including blue prints of the OSV kits, among other things, john rock also had an original clay model of the alero (RIP John) who knows what happened to it.

well good article.....some incorrect info based on personal conversations with rooster at the 2004 OCA Nationals. But gives a majority of the whole story.
Corrections below............................
4. Oldsmobile Alero 442 Concept (Originally had a High Output 2.4 with 5-spd and then was switched to a 475 hp 4.6 Northstar motor and 5 speed manual trans, in 2002 to early 2003)
The remainder of the Specialty vehicles were destroyed at Schrams in April of 2004 rather than listing the ones that GM had scrapped
I will list the ones I know that were saved and have visually seen since.
1. 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue 442
2. 2000 Oldsmobile Alero Convertible
3. 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue Candy Apple OSV Press (Show) Vehicle (Red Test vehicle destroyed)
4. 2000 Oldsmobile Alero Candy Apple Red OSV Press (Show) vehicle (Red Test vehicle destroyed)
5. 2001 Oldsmoible Blue/Green 4.0 liter Aurora with custom 19" Budnik wheels
6. 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora Pace car (actual pace car that paced the race)

Sorry, I thought the info was from you. It's all good, wasn't trying to bash your balls.
