Default Re: 70 L78 Nova?

Ron says that is not his nova.
C&E,owned by Nick Celozzi & Maury Ettleson,used to be known as Zepalack Chevrolet in it's early days & was at 155 E. Roosevelt rd..
C&E has alot of history here.I bought 2 cars from them in the late 70's & early 80's,as did my family during the 1960's.
Nick & Maury parted ways & sold it in 2000,when it was renamed Elmhurst Chevrolet by it's new owner.
Years later the land was sold to the township of Elmhurst to make way for a new Hospital.
They relocated Elmhurst Chevrolet,further up Roosevelt Rd. into my hometown of Villa Park,and called it Villa Park Chevrolet.
Later it changed names again to Castle Chevrolet,which is still there today.
The son of one of the owners,Nick Cellozi Jr. has a small hollywood acting career today.

I have many vintage trinkets from C&E..."Hard to Find,Tough To Beat".."Where you always save more money".

Wow about C & E! I had heard the hospital bought a bunch of property in that area but did not know it included C & E.

Our family bought at least 2 cars there that I remember. I also remember their TV commercials as a kid. Neat key chain.

Rick - Is Ettelson Cadillac related?

Sorry for the thread hi-jack.
