This bit of trivia from an episode of Adam-12 made me think of former Auto exec John DeLorean. I thought DeLorean was with AMC at one time but he was not.
John DeLorean did sell some property to a guy named Donald John Trump though..
DeLorean was married four times.[23] He married Elizabeth Higgins on September 3, 1954; they divorced in 1969.[46] He married Kelly Harmon on May 31, 1969, the sister of actor Mark Harmon and daughter of Heisman Trophy winner Tom Harmon and actress Elyse Knox; they divorced in 1972...
He later lived with a partner, Sally Baldwin, on his Bedminster, New Jersey, estate; they moved to Morristown, New Jersey, in 2000.[51] In 2002, the two married; they had a daughter, Sheila Baldwin DeLorean on February 19, 2002..
