Post Hory Chevrolet...

I remember this place very well...right on the corner of Weaver St and the Boston Post Rd....they were one of my dealer clients way back when. Tom Hory was Bernie Curry's brother-in-law...this dealership was there for many years. I think Hory had connections to Yenko and Motion and with Bill Kolb as well.

I believe Hory copied the Curry logo on his cars...Curry always had the name inside the Chevy Bowtie....I don't think the factory liked it, but these guys had a lot of juice back then.

Here are some old newspaper ads with the Hory logo...I'm sure you could find actual papers on file at a library that might offer better images.

That is correct. They where a yenko Vega dealer for sure. All the 73 black corvettes they ordered are COPOs is what I have been told.
