    A lot of changed hands but I can only think of two
    Ralph Lauren,
    Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason

    There's a green one in England, light green

    Didn't Fabrizio Violatti in Italy have one? He recently died
    but his children may have kept it.

    There used to be a dark blue one in San Francisco, owned by
    was it George Dyer? It was a street car always used as street car

    Then there was one in Beverly Hills, I think that
    was always a street car too. Car was located off Sunset near Westwood.

    That leaves dozens more....

    I realize that the owners want to maintain their privacy
    but when it's probable that at least twenty owners will be displaying their
    car at Pebble Beach , at least twenty of them will be known when their names go into the program

    PS Jay Leno is not one of them...

    I'm not an expert but several are mentioned regularly. I make no claims the below is completely accurate, feel free to comment.

    Sir Anthony Bamford owns two: 4399GT and 3767GT.

    The light green one you mention (3505GT) was owned by Harry Leventis. I heard some story that Erik Heerema owned it, not sure if that's the case. Harry also owned 4381SA which has been for sale through Talacrest over the past 2 years.

    Chris Evans owns 4675GT.

    Anthony Wang owns 4219GT, don't know if he also still owns 3769GT and 4713GT.

    Nick Mason owns 3757GT.

    Ed Davis owned 3705GT when he was interviewed a couple of years ago, presumably that is still the case.

    Tom Price owns 4757GT and sold 3943GT last year.

    Engelbert Steiger owns 3589GT and I think 4561SA (330GTO) still.

    Violati owned 3851GT, not sure what happened after he died.

    Ralph Lauren owns 3987GT.

    I think Paul Pappalardo still owns 5111GT. John McCaw owned a couple and Lee from the ROK also but this is information from the '90ies (Jess Pouret's book) so I have no idea whether that is still correct. Pierre Bardinon owned 5573GT and presumably still does.
