What was that black gbody olds with the funky wing? Was that factory?

That was the FE3X concept or clone, forget which one it is. I am not sure if the wing is factory, but I believe the owner of that car makes them. It is adjustable. He also makes the FE3X body kits and hood scoops, not cheap, but worth it. He is a member here, maybe he will chime in.

I believe it was the real deal...it was owned by Angelo Valenti, and it had full documentation on it.

Yes, that is him. He has a clone and the real one. He is one lucky dude.

Maybe we can clear somethings up here once and for all...

The funky wing as you put it is a decklid extention, it is really designed to lay flat all the time, it was made adjustable more for show and wow effect.

Neither car is a factory produced car , they are both made from proto type molds designed by GM Engineering and Oldsmobile headed up by Bill Porterfiled.My car was done soon after the original FE3-X by the same guys. The original has the tinted entire front end facia which was not for functional proposes but again for show and wow factor. Then you have all then issue of the lower skiriting also blocking all air to the lower airdam deflector to the radiator.The car with this set up & was not meant to be an everyday driver. This setup limited airflow extremely and the car would over heat. When they did my car they let me know I would have basically a trailer queen. I did not want it so we took the other direction and just did the lower airdam wrap and they custom made tinted pieces to go under the headlight trim pieces for same effect. I did purchase the ORIGINAL FE3-X one piece front facia and headlight covers to have and are store to this day if I ever make an exact duplicate.
The FE3-X also was first proposed to get the functional W25 ram air hood , which was dropped for the cowlset up later. They asked me when they did the car could they do the W25 setup, I said sure go for it. I also at the time bought the Cowl scoop and hood and stored at the time and later installed .
So the third car that someone said looked like the other 2 is actually my car the way they first made it. The 2 cars are the same just with the differant ramair setups. Lastly my car did not get the decklid extention, they had all kinds of problems with it and they told me again if we do it we cut holes in the decklid of the trunk that are not visable but if I ever wash the acr get caught in the rain I'd have lots of water in there so we went with a W40 Hurst Olds G Body wing.

I really never was crazy about the W25 setup on the car and I had lots of issues with that proto type hood, Just really never looked right with the G Body lines so I opted to go to the original cowl scoop ramair setup.

Once I went that far the car needed to have the decklid extention, so that is the one piece on the car we went to work on. We took all the measurements off the original car and lots of pics and came up with 99.9% basically the same decklid extention without and eliminated all the issues that they had with the first one. Same guy Mike who now owns proglass and who's bussiness is out of the old C&C building who built all the FE3-X parts back and the decklid extention did the new improved fully fuctional one. It just makes the car and its finally finished the way it should of been in the beginning.

I bought all the GM Molds later in 2000 afterJudy Badgley contacted me and said you may want to buy these since you own an FE3-X car.

My car is the concept car and has a one off Hurst / GM Engineering Darth Vader Concept car badging, modeled after the Hurst Equipped embelm, and like the earlier post stated I have all the documenation showing that the car is what it an FE3-X and the only FE3-X built and sold in 1985, and it proudly displayed with the car.

The First FE3-X built with the one piece plexigalss tinted header is owned by the RE Olds museum and is on display there. If you go to my site you can see a picture of this header with the reat of the kit for the car, really cool piece.

The cars have been at several photo sessions together over the years, and I have fun driving each car.

I have met and become good personal friends with the two main guys behind the FE3-X. Bill at Oldsmobile Engineering and Gary who then worked for Cars and Concepts. They both have signed the car, one on thr dash and the other under the hood.

So there are only 2 1985 FE3X Cutlasses not 3, 2 are the same car outfitted with differant hoods. Actually they built 4 FE3X cars. one was built onthe Frienza platform and the other off the newly downsized Calais platform, both have been crushed ...nowI made you more confused!!
