Speaking of Chicago, does anyone have any info on a McKeown Phelan Chevrolet in Glen Ellyn? My black 70 LS6 4sp was sold there new according to the NICB. The address shows what is now Jerry Haggerty Chev at 300 W Roosevelt RD. BTW Nickey Chevrolet is not completely dead, the small parts bins from the dealership's parts department are all in our parts dept to this day. When Nickey/Keystone /Lynch shut down we acquired them from the movers. (Ed Van Drill & Co) They are still full of Chevy parts being sold every day. come and visit them anytime.

Back in 1987 I took my IROC into Mckeown/Phelan Chevrolet for service.I was driving it to Texas the following week,and they were the only area dealership who had a sensor and harness in stock that my cars brain box needed.They were just switching ownership,so I asked if they had any crap in the attic they wanted to sell/throw away.They gave me permission to go look as I had to wait 3 hours in the waiting room for my car to be done.
I was floored at what I found,Lights displays,catalogs,and boxes of old paperwork all from the previous 20 years.Half of it I couldn't carry.I did manage to get some displays and catalogs that were not specific to Mckeown/Phalin as well as many Communication Kits from 1968-72.They even had the projector &amp; screen they showed them on.I felt at the time I got the best of the crap they had to offer,they had boxes of vehicle invoices &amp; trinkets like keychains and dealer decals,ice scrappers,etc.They would have sold me the waiting room furniture if I wanted it.They really were abandoning ship at that time.It was a pretty run down deshoveled looking business by then.
I always regret not getting more as my time &amp; funds were limited.Today it's obvious the collectibility in that,but back then who knew as much.I do have some paper stating they were Zone-11 Dealer-368.
