Thanks to Owen's encyclopedic knowledge of musclecars, and research, I am the proud and happy owner of an InViolet 1970 Hemi Cuda. Owen and I
traveled together halfway across the country to look at this car, and he
was able to verify the correctness and authenticity of the car. On the
same trip, he saved me from the mistake of purchasing a '70 Chevelle SS
454 convertible. I was ready to buy this car based on its initial
appearance until Owen pointed out the lack of correct numbers, and more
seriously, a damaged frame.
The 1970 Hemi Cuda that Owen helped me purchase.
This year, once again I selected Owen to accompany me to
Houston to look at a '70 Shelby GT500, and his examination reported a
clean bill of health. I have since added this Grabber Green gem to my growing
collection. I heartily recommend taking advantage of Owen's expertise
the next time you're in the market for a new collector car.

My wife and I have known Owen Griesemer for over 40 years. Encouraged by his father, he became fascinated with automobiles at an early age. As a
young man he began restoring cars. Actually, he gave new meaning to the
word "restoration". He paid minute attention to detail, both mechanical
and cosmetic. The engine compartment as well as the interior were
spectacularly clean. Even components not normally visible, like the
suspension, were clean and even painted if appropriate. Were we interested
in a used automobile, especially a vintage vehicle, we would certainly look
to Owen for guidance and assistance.

I became acquainted with Owen Griesemer about 22 years ago as a result of our mutual interest in automobiles. Over the years I have relied on Owen for advise on purchasing and selling automobiles, generally muscle cars. I have found Owen to be a very knowledgeable individual about the automobile hobby.
Here I am with a "diamond in the rough" W-30.
On many occasions Owen has steered me in the right direction when it came time to make a decision on the purchase of a classic car. I would certainly recommend him as a competent and ethical resource to assist less knowledgeable individuals in purchasing classic cars.

I have known Owen Griesemer since 1993, first as a member of the Great Salt Lake Chapter of the Pontiac Oakland Club International
(GSLC-POCI),and then later as a close friend. Owen served along side of me as an
officer of the above mentioned club for a period of eight years.
Owen has been involved with an assortment of national automotive clubs since I have know him. Along with being a POCI member, he has also
been a member of the GTO Association of America (GTOAA) and the Oldsmobile
Club of America (OCA). Owen also recently held the position of
President of the national Performance Chapter of the OCA for 3 years.
Owen is what I refer to as a "Real Car Guy". More than just liking
cars, a "Real Car Guy" lives and breaths cars and the automotive hobby.
Owen fits into this billing quite nicely. Owen is the first person I
look to when seeking automotive advice, be it advice on purchasing a
car, a mechanical suggestion or just to have lunch together and bench
race about cars.
Owen has a vast collection (larger than anyone else I've ever met) of automotive literature that he uses to help answer most any question
that I may have about cars. Owen loves classic cars so much, that he owns
nothing else. His daily driver is the same car he brings to our local
Annual Pontiac show that he helps to organize each year.
Owen and I have attended many national automotive related events
together over the years from one coast to the other. Owen has taken
several hours of his own time from these events just to judge in the
points judged shows (POCI, OCA). Owen has also been a judge for
the Salt Lake City Concours d'Elegance car show for the past several years,
most recently judging the muscle car class.
When it comes to classic cars, there is no better friend to the hobby you could ask for than Owen Griesemer.
