This was a fun addition. Matt did a great job chasing down the "best of the best" when it comes to these cars.

In case anyone is wondering what “GMMG” stands for, its George-Murphy Motor Group.

Thought it was "GM-My Generation" from the sign.

Wasn't GMMG owned/operated/run by Matt Murphy?



I would think the two middle M's would be for Matt Murphy?

Matt Murphy had a partner at the beginning with a last name of George, so George-Murphy Motor Group.
Evidently Matt still owns the business.

Very Kool line up of GMMG Camaros. GMMG, Inc. ceased doing business a long time ago and the Company Name was picked up and trademarked by the GMMG Registry. Jim Smith is one of the Principals of the GMMG registry. I do not believe Matt Murphy is involved or ever was involved as a Principal of the Registry.

Default Gmmg

Thanks & I appreciate the assistance.

The Registry was started with Matt Murphy's approval in spring 2010 before GMMG closed later in 2010. I was easy to see what was about to happen & I am so lucky to get this information before it was lost forever. Matt has vanished since 2010.

I lived @ GMMG for about 10 days (spring of 2010) & Matt gave me & printed all the build info, all his photos & other info.

Matt has never been involved with the Registry

The GMMG Registry now owns the GMMG Name & Trademarks.

The Registry attempts to document any cars built by GMMG with GMMG Brass Door Tag. This will always be work in progress trying to get the history of the cars accurate.

It was great to see nine Dick Harrell Editions @ MCACN. Matt Avery pulled this together & gets the credit. The NICKEY display was very nice.

Thanks again. Happy holidays.
