The car of choice for Clara Ford, Henry's wife, as she didn't like gas engines. Back in 1914 one of these Detroit Electrics set a range record of 241 miles. They incorporated regenerative braking in 1915.
While the other cars were painted red, the Olds 442 inner fenders were molded plastic; black for standard models and red for the W-30 models. They didn't get painted. These are still reproduced for the aftermarket.
The W-30 option on the 442 automatically got you the red inner wheel wells. They weren't available any other way.
1966-67 GTO had the red wheel well option too, both front and back.
And even before that, it was available on 1953 and 1954 Buick Skylark convertibles.
