I contacted Hib Halverson and he reached out to a friend of his who advised that "1AA" is a fleet order code. The documentation shows the car was build to the GM Region Office in California that handles the press cars. The invoice shows it was delivered to the proving grounds in Arizona.
Hib explains that is typical to have the cars delivered there so GM execs and others can drive them and "workout" any bugs before the press gets ahold of them.
The paperwork that came with the car shows GM put roughly 10,000 miles on the car then sold it to a dealer in California in 1996. It was stored in a private collection. Then went to a second dealer in Wisconsin. Still never titled, and only an additional 2,000 miles put on the car.
The guy I bought it from purchased it at Barrett Jackson in January of last year. He only put 100 miles on the car. The odometer reads 12,148 miles today as it sits in my garage and looks every bit of it!
That's the short story.
