Geocache Description:

This cache is in honor of Wes_and_Tara reaching 1000 finds. They even did it in less than 1 years time! That's like 3 finds a day... every day... Congrats guys.

Since there are two of you, I struggled on what to do for this cache. I thought about doing two caches. I thought about doing a night cache. I thought about a crazy container. In the end I thought about just getting it done. (since you are approaching 1300 finds already) So I tried to come up with something that both of you would enjoy. Hope you and everybody else have fun with the puzzle..

To find the coordinates of the final container, you will have to first find the correct answers that correspond with the LETTERS below. Then fill in the LETTERS with the correct answers. Once you have done so, you should see a full set of coordinates. This is where the container is located. Please be nice to it. It's one of a kind. I have added a geochecker for you to make certain before you head out. Good luck!

The coordinates for the container are *ABCDEFGH*


A = The horsepower rating of the engine in the first year the Hurst/Olds was built, divided by 10.

B = The first number in the "Model" of Oldsmobile that the Hurst/Olds was based off of.

C = The last two digits of the first year the Hurst/Olds was built.

D = The last two numbers in the "Model" of Oldsmobile that the Hurst/Olds was based off of.

E = The last two digits of the last year the Hurst/Olds was built.

F = The number of Hurst/Olds built in the last year they were produced.

G = The last two digits of the year the 15th Anniversary model was built.

H = The last two digits of the first year that a 350 V8 could be ordered in a Hurst/Olds, minus 10.

Put these answers in order and you should see a set of coordinates. Cache should be easy to find.
