Re: GM heritage collection selloff
 

There were articles about Pinky's collection in "Cars and Parts" magazine maybe 10 years ago... don't even know if that magazine even exists anymore. Was this article recent?

Does anyone know if the 2005 GTO Sema, is the concept GTO? If so that is how it should have looked in production.

Some trouble with all of this as well. On one of the Olds boards that I frequent, they yelled out quick that they can't sell the Olds 'Darth Vader' concept car. Not because they do not want the history gone, but because they do not own it!!!! Bill Porterfield had signed over the title for that car to the R.E.Olds meuseum in Lansing.

Someone just told me a LOT of these cars can NOT be titled !
There is NO titles on quite a few of these cars as they were experimentals or proto-types.. Some dont have vin #'s
https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif Any truth to this ???

Re: GM heritage collection selloff
 

Some of the cars are EXP models and there is nothing different than the cars GM have sold off at other auctions in the past,sold on Bill of sale only. Many cars are ones that GM purchased along the way of putting together the collection and should not have any issues with Titles.
I looked at the BJ list yesterday and only read one ad for the Green Hot Rod that was commissioned by Olds for its 100th anniversary, its has no title. No different from buying a race car that was built from the ground up for racing.
If someone had donated a car to the collection,that may be another story as to their right to resell it. i dont know how charity rules work with "Museums".

Yes it's true, I know a few of these cars didn't have VIN's assigned to them.
