Usually they simply went into dealer only tenders, a few of these documents have appeared in recent times. One very interesting example from early 1975 has on it a few very interesting cars like the Ewe't. |

...the tender cars were usually the ex factory demonstrator/press cars and GMAC vehicles.... as the dealer demonstrators had to be paid for prior to ''leaving the factory''..... Edited by user Friday, 14 June 2013 8:06:44 AM(UTC)

The Contessa Gold HQ GTS350 on the 2/75 Tender wasn't, it was a later car, but it is only one car! |
