Gates Chev or Bud Gates Indiana dealer

[John Brown]

Gates Chevrolet had two locations, South Bend Gates Chevrolet was at 333 Western Avenue, South Bend, Indiana and Town & Country (Mishawaka) Gates Chevrolet was at 666 W McKinley, Mishawaka, Indiana. Van Gates owned both of them, and they both sold Yenko conversion cars. South Bend and Mishawaka touch at their borders and the two dealerships were only about five miles apart. There was a third Gates dealership, Ned Gates Chevrolet in Benton Harbor, Michigan, owned I believe by Van's brother.
