Not Olds. There were more American car brands at that time.

Studebaker kustom build 1960?
Studebaker kustom = YES!
1960 build = YES, from around that time

I'm going to lock the thread for you because it will be so easy to find from here!

Not at all, but you now have all of the info you need for a quick search. When looking for this type of car, three websites immediately come to mind; it's on all three of them. It's on several other websites as well. Believe me, this thing is not hiding.
