Pretty common to see the GM organization stamp the POP and not the dealer. My SS396 is stamped the same way. And sales date is the initial delivery date. I've seen overseas orders stamp the POP too.
Lots of uses of cars in GM back then: pool cars, managers, development.
That one looks like it went to the proving grounds for development. Could be something like testing AC radiator performance, who knows....

Default More questions

If it did go to the proving grounds for testing, why would it shows the buyer’s name on the POP? Didn’t vehicles go to the proving grounds for testing and then later sold either by GM or by a local dealer? The sale date on the POP is just a few days after the build date, so why any ownership at all until after testing.....? Strange...
Still have not heard back from original buyer, hopefully he contacts my customer....
