Default GM selling 252 classic cars and concepts from Heritage Museum

General Motors’ cash struggles have forced the Detroit carmaker's accountants to find creative ways of producing income, and the latest bid to raise extra capital sees the General auctioning off more than 250 new and old production models and concepts that up until now have been admired in the company’s Heritage Museum Collection.

The cars will be sold at the Barret-Jackson auction taking place in Arizona early next year, and includes a wide range of cars that have played important roles in GM's history, as well as some more bizarre lots, such as the 1990 Buick Bolero concept car.

Other notable lots include a 1918 Cadillac, the 1998 Popemobile used to transport the Catholic pontiff, and a veritable smorgasbord of Corvette specials, such as the 2004 Indy Pace Car Corvette and a number of 1989 ZR-1s. For those of you who like to get sideways, GM will also be selling off its 2006 Pontiac Solstice GXP drifting car sponsored by Red Bull energy drinks. The drifter, which was driven by 2008's drifting champion Rhys Millen, puts out over 500hp (373kW) or roughly double the output of the standard Solstice GXP.

Other cars being sold at the auction include:

1. 1955 Buick Century

Holy shit... I seriously blew a mouthful of soda out of my nose when I saw that, and it really burns And people blame all of GM's problems on unions.

I bet I won't be able to come up with the scratch to get my own popemobile. Major bummer.

How many of the upper management types would have to take a minor cut in remuneration in order to save that collection; say 5%?
