Pretty Cool!
I made a post in the parts/memorabilia section looking for Norwood memorabilia. The new owner would really like to have a dealer emblem and a license plate frame. Let me know if you can help.

Balise is a big company here in RI. They had Balise Chevrolet for quite a while, and have started buying up quite a few dealerships in the state. They also bought HURD Chevrolet, (still using the HURD name because they already have a Balise Chevrolet) and bought Colonial Toyota which is now called Toyota of Smithfield (because they already own a Balise Toyota).
They also, just in RI alone have Nissan, Genesis, Honda, Subaru, and VW dealerships, two large auto body collision centers, and 6 mega car washes.
I have a Scuncio ex drag car Camaro, and back in the 60s and 70s, second to Scuncio, Norwood was a Chevy dealer in RI who definitely dabbled in the super car arena, and at the local drag strips as well.
