David North? Can't say I've heard of him but THANK HIM IMMENSELY for his design of the '68 Cutlass.

I couldn't find a link to the auction, so I didn't put this in the cars for sale section.

GM Designer Who Penned the 1968 Cutlass and Reatta Selling His Personal Car With Paperwork (msn.com)

Not sure how current this is. His 442 needs minor work (stripe is in the wrong place) but looks to be a good base to build on. Unfortunately, if what this article claims is true, the name association will likely inflate the gavel price.

 

That article is from Motorious, which is click bait. Guarantee its full of errors and inaccuracies

 

I think the writer was either ESL or a bot.

 

Well, I took the bait. But when the bait connected "The Designer of the 68 Cutlass" w/ a picture of a black-on-red '68 442, can you blame me?
