"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

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...

aren't the brass hat cars typically early production or built for promo for a special event? (ie. indy 500)

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

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 &quot;tag&quot; to a recognizable name, like &quot;TAG-WANGERS&quot; then that would be pretty conclusive.

Otherwise a lot of options does not a &quot;Brass Hat&quot; car make.

Additional commentary on &quot;loaded Judges&quot;:
