Can't imagine that happening if Roy was still at the wheel.

Well Tom, at one point this morning I thought we had it. Then the trail took a turn! Good luck getting your shipper fixed.

Been having trouble finding out some info from my NCRS report. My dealer code is 22 and my zone is 45. Has anyone heard of this code and zone number?

Wheelhop above should confirm or maybe recheck his info too as even the NCRS site lists Zone #03 Dealer #342 as Hauck Chevy Waynesville MO?
[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete [/quote] I sent a question to the NCRS website and they replied saying that they had two listings for dealer information: One was prior to 1970, and the other after 1970. The older listing does not have information on dealer 342/zone 3, so with a "later" '69 built car I was provided the dealer information from the newer listing which has 342 assigned to Harris.

Looks like they had some real muscle roll through that place. Has anyone found any plate frames or advertising from them?

Here is the reply I got...and my response.
Date: 2014-07-15 16:41:40 Name: John Waggoner Printer friendly version Message: The Dealercode Database is made of up submissions by many people both Corvette owners and owners of other Chevrolet makes. There is no verification of the data in the Dealercode Database other than from time to time someone notifies us and supplies evidence that there is an error. We will correct those errors. The shipping report that was sent to you included information from GM as to the dealer the car was shipped to. This is where the trucking company delivered the car. From time to time dealers did trade cars to satisfy a customers wants. In this instance the car may have been sold by a different dealer than it was shipped to. The Shipping Data Report is still accurate because it identifies the dealer the car was shipped to. Sincerely, John Waggoner Chevy Muscle Docs http://www.chevymuscledocs.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2014-07-16 03:55:02 Name: tom williams Printer friendly version Message: Thanks for the reply...but, your records are not correct...the info I sent on the dealer number and zone were from your database...if you look at it you will see what I'm talking about. I understand that dealers swapped and sold cars...but, from my research Krise Motor Co. wasn't even in business in 1970...thus making it impossible for them to have been the dealer. Please review this again...and send a corrected report. Tom Williams <span style="font-weight: bold">I don't think they are really looking at this...just a generic reply. wilma [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] </span>

Good grief! You have a guy that practically lived at Krise telling you it was sold/closed in 1960. What more do they want?

![]() A few bumps w/ the NCRS service but let's all try to be thankful for what we do get it'd be a shame if the service was discontinued because of too much flak and/or negative responses? Not all info is available to satisfy every circumstance so best use the results to seek out the rest of the story by connecting w/ others who have cars shipped to the same dealer codes etc? As for matching the codes w/ the actual dealers, much info out there is indeed conflicting including what NCRS has on file but getting the zone and dealer code is key then a fella can track the dealer or confirm those indicated on the NCRS reports. We've had a few Laks Chevrolet threads here in the past so try the search box, click below to one of them that includes a link to a Laks Chevy newspaper ad near the end of page two. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...opics/458080/1 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete
