In a move that was supposed to help General Motors get rid of excess cars from its Heritage Collection, the anticipated weekend sale in Florida has been stopped all thanks to the intervention of the Federal Government. The cars are either duplicates, or cars like the millionth Saturn to be built, or cars from Car Shows that were modified with paint jobs
Greg Wallace with the Heritage collection says there was nothing for sale that was pivotal to their core historic collection. Buyers were eager to buy.
The NHTSA has halted the sale, saying that the new owners may try to register and drive some of the cars that were not street legal. GM says its been upfront with collectors that the cars all have salvage titles and cannot be registered for normal use. The agency has taken the Easter weekend off and won’t discuss the matter until Monday.
