My uncle's company purchased a lot of vehicles from the local Chevy/Cadillac Dealer. One day in 1976, he received a call from the owner of the dealership asking if he was interested in purchasing the only Bicentennial Edition (one of 200 made, all of them white inside and out with blue and red trim) that was allocated to that Dealer.
My uncle purchased it for sticker price, drove it a few times, and parked it in his garage with less than 100 miles on the odometer. Sold it about 25 years later for a lot more than he paid.
There was s special dash plaque. As Lynwood said, " I would be very careful about predicting what the future of transportation will be."
