And you still have yet to see a real one

I'm pretty sure this is the guy who has a bunch of "paperwork" that doesn't prove anything.

Someone will surely correct me if I'm wrong.



I believe this one to be a real one with GM of Canada paperwork. The original engine is long gone and the owner added A/C

He has been trying to sell it for at least 2 years that I know of, I see the car at all the local shows, the guy is not a pleasant person to talk to either.. whether or not it is a real W32 or not is debatable, but in person it is a Very very nice 442 Convertible

Its interesting about the rarity of this car, as i know of 3 of them locally that are true documented cars. I also have seen one at previous Olds Nats.

when you say three do you mean convertibles or hardtops
that's amazing in one area if convertibles, seeing 25 were only made

It does seem like a nice car, but for a price north of 50k you need some bullet proof paperwork.

Someone should ask him via eBay about the documentation and see what his response is.

I'd do it but I already did 6 month ago.

I did as well via eBay and phone.
His common response is he has no paper work and continually referenced prior female owner
He could tell me carb number nor dist number and actually he was suppose to call me back w that info and have yet to hear from him oh well

So is this guy trying it again? Is this the same car?

Interesting that on Facebook the owner of H&H Classic Auto, Jeffrey Herboltzheimer, says he used to own this car. He said it sold at BJ for $108,700 ten years ago.

In addition to the 3 cars in the Vancouver BC area there is also a white & red one in Calgary with documentation.


Devon....add your location to your profile so people know where 'local' is.
