"Brass Hat" Car?
Guys I don't know if this is the right place for this question, but if I need to post somewhere else just let me know.
I would like to know how you document or determine that a car was a "Brass Hat" car. I have a Judge convertible that I think could have been one. The car has 38 options listed on the PHS. I'm thinking about selling the car and I think that might help the value. Any help would be appreciated

"Brass Hat" Car?
'
Exactly on the where delivered question! Site Member GTO Don can maybe help you as he knows Ponchos also sold a Brass Hat '67 Firebird a few months back in this thread... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...firebird-400-g Did your GS sell? Merry Christmas! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

Re: "Brass Hat" Car?
ruc, here's one of my pages describing a 1969 Pontiac invoice breakdown. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
http://www.musclecarfilms.com/Pontiac_Invoice.html If you have the invoice, I can help you decode any of the other information. If you'd like to share the invoice, please send to [email protected] (or just PM me). If you'd like to share it publicly, please post! I have many invoices, and even a few original window stickers, for brass hat cars. I also have invoices for several 33+ optioned cars. It's hard to tell what your car was used for unless you can provide more information. Mike

Re: "Brass Hat" Car?
An invoice that indicates an interesting dealer (like Royal or Knapfel) would be a plus, as would a dealer zone of PMD, Pontiac Engineering or PMD racing (07-621, 35-997, or 99-998, respectively). If the build sheet indicates a "tag" to a recognizable name, like "TAG-WANGERS" then that would be pretty conclusive.
Otherwise a lot of options does not a "Brass Hat" car make. Additional commentary on "loaded Judges": http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...ight=brass+hat http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...ight=brass+hat

Re: "Brass Hat" Car?
brass hat isnt usually a festival type car..its built for someone special, like a celebrity, or a zone managers demonstrator...in other words its usually a special car for a special person, usually the build sheets if found are pink for 69 up, cars and the early sheets have written instructions that spell it out.
the Burt Reynolds bandit T/A that was given to him by GM, has a pink sheet and has been posted publicly...the connection of a brass hat car can be made there easily..special car for a special person
