Restraining orders are serious Frank.
Remember...500 feet or more,not less!

Re: Looking for a Reedman Chevrolet Metal Emblem
 
Are you joking about the restraining order? Sounds like my own experience with a past owner's mother when I was trying to document my 1970 Chevelle SS396.... The trail grew pretty cold after that.

He's only kidding! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif[/img] Come on Rick you will have people thinking that I am some stalker!

Seriously, I talked with the widow and she is very elderly. She actually has all the ledgers from the dealership at her house that she read me over the phone with all the vehicles that they sold at the dealership. I already have a full owner history on my car back to 1976 that I traced through 4 states till I got to Minn which does not do title historys because they destroy the records. In the ledgers she has to who and when the cars were sold new. She tried to read through some of the cars while I was on the phone but I think that she may be a bit senile. I really felt bad for her. I wrote her letters after our phone conversation but have had no luck in her responding. I have hit a road block and would love find & to talk to the original owner of my car. I also know they have to have dealer memorobilia there at the house since they resided there for quite some time. The dealership closed in 1982 and it is now a banister repair shop. The dealer address was

Orville Nerhus Chevrolet
205 Main St.
Lakefield, Minn

If anybody thinks they could help me please PM me. Their will be a reward! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

Frank, sounds like its time for a road trip!

Re: Looking for a Reedman Chevrolet Metal Emblem
 
GTO Don has fallen into radio silence, so I don't think he will be selling me the Reedman emblem. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Is there anyone else out there with a metal Reedman emblem that would be willing to part with it? Please PM me if so. I'd like to put it on my 70 LS6 to bring it back to original.

Thanks.

Re: Looking for a Reedman Chevrolet Metal Emblem
 
I HAVE RETURNED FROM RADIO SILENCE! I HAVE THE EMBLEM FOR YOU. I DIDNT FORGET, IVE BEEN BUSY WITH MY 10 YEAR OLD SON AND HIS SCHOOLWORK. IM A SINGLE PARENT. ID RATHER JUST GIVE YOU THE EMBLEM THAN TAKE THE 10.00 DOLLARS YOU OFFERED. GIVE ME YOUR ADDRESS AND ILL SEND IT TO YOU. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Hi, I am still looking for a Reedman Chevrolet Metal Emblem for my original '70 Chevelle SS that was sold out of that dealership as a new car. If anyone would like to sell me an extra one they may have, I am willing to pay a reasonable fee for it. Someone had committed to send one to me but they haven't followed thru.

Thanks,

Morris

I would PM MNYenko if I were you. He seems to collect a few emblems every so often, and since he is from MN and knows of a yard that has many vintage iron there, I am sure he can find it. If not, do you have a picture of what it should look like, I frequent the yards during the warm months and will keep my eye out for ya.

Re: Looking for a Reedman Chevrolet Metal Emblem
 
Don, I haven't heard from you in a while. Any chance of sending the emblem out soon as the car is going to be with my bodyman and I'd rather have him drill the holes instead of me.

Thanks,

Morris

Hey, I wanted to reactivate this thread. I am still looking for a metal vintage 1970 Reedman Chevrolet dealership emblem for my 1970 Chevelle SS454 that was sold there. So far some folks have come forward and either had a later emblem (plastic) or in one case just didn't come through. I am not looking for a handout here, I am willing to pay a reasonable price plus shipping for it. Please PM me or send me an email if you are able to help. Thanks,

Morris

I'll send you a pic.
