Thumbs up 2012 GM Employee show

Anyone know who these belong to? Nice to see them gathered together...

Nice row!

The first one reminds me of the '77 LeMans Sport Coupe (CA clone) that was discussed here a couple of months ago. It had been FS on craigslist and the bay a few times.
A Non CA with a factory 400 and the regular LeMans dash dressed as a CA.

Just thinking out loud, not saying it actually is that car....... but makes me think it is, missing specific CA trim . Has them all white snowflakes too.

Anyway, looking good...(I was actually thinking about buying that car when it first came up for sale).

Yes, I agree. It has those ugly all white Snowflake wheels, and white bench seat interior with the black buttons. The car when it was discussed here a few months ago did not have the Can Am logos on it, so they were recently added. This show was held in July, 2012.

I was wondering who the owners were myself. My Judge was parked across from the Can Ams, a few cars down.
I never did get a chance to check out what the deal was. I hadnt seen that many Can Ams together since Norwalk a few years ago.

I remember looking at them they were very nice. The car in question was the one that was on craigslist and I think the new owner brought it as there were no for sale signs on it at the show. Your Judge was fantastic. Very nice.

I know the guy that administrates the GM Employee Car show so I sent him a note asking about the owners of these three cars.

He has that on record but was hesitant to share due to privacy concerns. I can respect that; I didn't feel like I really needed to know so I did not press the matter.

I wasn't there that day. We were launching product at the assembly plant so I was in Detroit-Hamtramck for the whole summer.

Sorry I could not be of more help.
