Re: Courtesy Chevrolet
Courtesy Chevrolet was owned by Ed Fitzgerald, of Phoenix Arizona. He also owned or franchised the multiple Courtesy dealerships in California during his sponsorship of the Dick Harrell Performance Center. I understand all of the converted or modified vehicles from Dick's shop, sold by Courtesy, were shipped through the Phoenix location, on the way to California.
Phoenix was the main location of one of the AHRA Winternationals (hot cars) from 1968 on at BeeLine. This is around the beginning of the time Ed Fitzgerald started his association with Dick. I think Tom's '68 AA/FC is the first Courtesy sponsored vehicle Dick drove.

Re: Courtesy Chevrolet
This is interesting...when we were in Phoenix for the B-J auction I passed the Courtesy Chevy dealership a few times. I thought it sounded familiar and it looked like a historic dealership so I was curious if it was a supercar dealership.

Re: Courtesy Chevrolet
No, if I would have known of it's history I would have, but the pic in the first post is it.
 Pretty cool vintage looking sign.

Re: Courtesy Chevrolet
I figured I'd share these with the gang......I found these cuff links and tie tac out at Vette-Fest last Sat. I may have to "dress" for the DHP show if I make it out there in May.
