  • d@mn, I wish i was rich... hey Norm! all..check this out!

    just came in from Scott Settlemire.....:





    Good afternoon, Camaro Comrades, Firebird Friends, and Corvette Cousins............

    As you may know, the GM Heritage Collection numbers in the many hundreds of cars and trucks - from 'first builts' and 'last builts' to one-off show cars to SEMA show cars.

    The Decision has been made to sell off select vehicles. (Indeed, a sad day for some of us......)

    There's a little of everything -- from the Legendary Buick Blackhawk -- to (are you sitting down?) a COUPLE of 1989 Corvette ZR1s -- the Jon Moss built Track-dominating Black 572 ZL1 -- A C5 Alpha and a C5 Beta -- The Tiger Shark -- the LT5 Camaro -- a 1904 Olds Touring -- several GTOS -- both old and new -- a couple of 1970 muscle cars -- a mid nineties "510" Impala SS -- and many, many pace cars and trucks.

    This may be the time to break open the piggy bank.................

    PLEASE NOTE:

    >This is a preliminary list -- it is very likely subject to change -

    >Barrett-Jackson will, in the coming week or two, put out pictures of each of these cars on their website.

    >This is the Scottsdale, AZ auction -- January 13-19, 2009.

    >Please feel free to share with your club members and friends

            also......

            I kinda think Congress might just point the finger at those too..and say "why do you need those? why should we lend you money so you can hang on to those?".

                  That's what I thought, but I didn't want to assume. That's an amazing list. I need some cash to play with.

                    Not sure how healthy the market is, but I guess there are always wealthy collectors- some really nice pieces in there- The one that leaped out to me (nostalgia) was the 1970 Olds 442 with W30 options- Almost like the Buick Skylark GSX I was never able to afford- in my dreams, a big-block and a convertible.....sigh

                    Also liked the idea of the mid-90's big-block Impala- a car that GM should have built- would have raised the desirability of the whole model line. Though, the LT1-powered version was no slouch- I just think that torque is the answer in a 3700 lb car.

                    This could raise a few million for GM- more symbolic than a real answer, but, if it can keep the company limping along until the congress gets off their butt, so be it.
                    2001 Z28 A4 - 160 deg t-stat, 3.42 gears, WS6 sway bars, rear springs and shocks, UMI SFC's, Torque Arm and STB, leather Firebird seats, Borla, SLP Y-pipe and lid, ZO6 cam and springs - 332 RWHP and 346 RWTQ, not bad for 'almost stock' - work in progress
