Gm brass hat owned cars

[Motorhead848]

Do brass hat owned cars hold a higher value then other cars? Looking at a car that was a brass hat car for someone at Cadillac. He wants more money then it's probably worth because of this. So I'm wondering what kind of value it adds if any. Input would be great.

Burt Reynolds Brass Hat Trans AM..yes....Bert Schmuckinsteins car...i dont think so unless its really really special..i mean really special..or extremely rare..

its all a sales pitch...a zone reps car...a high selling dealership owners car..both are considered a brass hat car...

now find the publicity car that was photo'd for all the mags..and prove it...well yes it has more value...

who does he say it belonged to...Did he say a name...or just trying to bull-crap his way thru the conversation?

what generation of car? The late 60s and thru the 70..the broadcast sheet is PINK..does it have a PINK broadcast sheet? if not..how can he prove it...just posing situations..not arguing..

This is a 67 corvette roadster L79. Says it was deliver to a William b hempel of Cadillac at the "Gm proving grounds". Says he has docs to prove it. I haven't seen them in person yet. He has the tank sticker, ncrs shipper report and pop I believe. But is the car worth $100 1k 5k or 10k more or none at all since it's not a big Gm name (that I've heard of anyway)
Thanks for the input

I kinda consider myself a collector and I would not ad any dollar value. Neat but not worth more to me.

Proteam has a 66 L79 Air Coupe delivered to Joe Pike (Chevrolet brand manager at GM)... Brass Hat car Silver over bright Blue Leather really nicely equipped I do not believe it is priced much if any differently than a similarly equipped car, tons of docs though.

Brass hat cars were typically well optioned. A well optioned collector car should bring more than a base model. I don't think the "Brass Hat" adds value but the options would.

Thanks for the input. Going to see the car tomorrow and see what it's all about.
