I'd be willing to bet the guy walking around with the dog was Richard Clark. Always comes to Buick Nats with Dennis Kirban. He bought all the orginal tooling for the GNX rear suspension and reproduces it. He has a stupid amount of Buick stuff, multiple cars, including 3 GNX's. A couple of barns full of shelves with complete motors, trans, rears, wheels, etc.

I won the display engine w/ stand and paid $575
No cam, rods or pistons (big deal )
I tore it down soon as I got home....I was sure the crank and block were toast BUT!
had STD/STD turbo crank
STD bore 109 block w/ oil pan
stock valve covers
8445 heads w/ stock valves and springs, ARP bolts
intake, fuel rail w/Precision polished plenum
throttle body w/ 7th inj.
crank pulley & balancer w/ timing doctor tape
rebuilt turbo w/ polished compressor side and Adj wastgate
Billet aluminum W/P pulley, water outlet lots and losts of SS Allen head fasteners
Then I bid on a lot in a room with and scored a box of GM lifters (enough for 4 engines), 5 VDO gauges, billet aluminum lower control arms, GM fuel tank sender asm., tons of brass fittings, hoses, 6 billet aluminum valve cover spacers, 1 SS polished up-pipe, a bunch of SS t-bolt clamps and misc crap all brand new. There was some office supplies I sold to a lady who wanted them.
Not a bad day at all. I could barley fit it in my car.
But I got there a little late and the bidding went fast and furious, there were some who made off really well.
Like the guy who got 3" single shot exhaust 3" dual exhaust, 3 SS up pipes, Catalyst, misc pipes and two BRAND NEW GM stage II heads (bare) for $375!!
