Default Re: Fred Gibb Chevrolet to be honored at York 08'


Last year Don Yenko, this year Fred Gibb being inducted into the York US30 Legion of Honor really makes a statement about how important these two gentlemen were in the development and promotion of Chevrolet powered musclecars. Truly both were visionaries. To have the power, and no doubt persistence, to convince Chevrolet to develop such cars, and to be willing to sacrifice everything in the belief that these “special” cars would sell is mind-boggling. It is one thing to do a few engine swaps, where one could pull the plug at any time, but a whole different animal when you sign on the dotted line for 50 such vehicles.


Congratulations to Helen and Nancy for receiving the much-deserved recognition for their tireless efforts in promoting the Fred Gibb Chevrolet name.
