The invoice I have for Craig Fisher's '67 Z-28 is signed J. Coffey next to where it says "salesman". This would seem to suggest he went by Jerry Coffey rather than Gerrie Coffee. The J. Coffey is also on a second related document I have.

My entry above was corrected elsewhere in the Forum. Jerry is alive and well at 86 years of age and I am in regular contact with him. He recently gave me all of his sales files going back to 1953.

I'm relatively new here and this is my first post. I noticed along with the dealer emblems shown in a prior post there was one of B & A Chevrolet which was located in the Yorkville area of Toronto. I may have missed postings on this dealership however I always thought they were one of the major dealers in hi-po cars in the Toronto area. I was looking at a 375 hrs Nova in their window in September of 1969 and eventually traded my 435 hrs Vette on a 69 Copo Chevelle from a salesman at that dealership by the name of Joe . The 70's were out and they had three of the five Copo Chevelles they had that year in a compound up on Avenue Rd. They had just been bought out or amalgamated with Addison Chev. Olds and were moving up to Steeles Ave. The cars in the compound were two dark green Chevelles and one blue. I remember Joe had said they also had a yellow and an orange one which they had sold previously. He eventually went to Don Howson Chev Olds and the last time I spoke with him he had gone to North York Chev Olds however this was in 1973. I still have the original blue emblem from the grille and the dealer emblem floating around in the top of my toolbox. I suppose his name is on my original bill of sale, which I also have, together with the broadcast and shipping copies. I remember B & A advertised 427-425 hrs Chevelles, Camaros and Biscaynes in Wheelspin back then. This is likely the wrong place to post this however it is what it is. Thanks.
