1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Holiday 442 Coupe "Hamilton" (3 of 4)
"Hamilton" was created in 2008 for an ABC television series titled "The Prince of Motor City." It was a drama with big name talent that never made it past its pilot. Prince was described in the Hollywood Reporter as a gothic family soap inspired by Hamlet that centers on a young Harvard philosophy professor forced to return to Detroit to take over Hamilton Motors, the family's auto company, after his father's death.
The Hamilton seen here is the only one in existence and was designed by a team from the Cinema Vehicle Services Collection. Two other "Hamilton's" were being built at the time the plug was pulled on the series and were scraped.
Photographed at the 2013 Oldsmobile Club of America National Meet at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Springfield, Illinois on July 23-27, 2013. Co-hosts of the event were the Archway Oldsmobile Club and Illinois Valley Oldsmobile Club.
