I believe you will find dealer zero in zone 12 is the zone office. In other words a car going to dealer 0 in zone 12 was initially billed by GM to the Zone Office this happened for many reasons most typically because someone in the zone was assigned the car to use, however cars were billed to zone offices for other reasons also. </div></div>thanks Roy. This car in question is a high option 67 Ssrs l78 convertible so maybe some executive ordered it special. Would be nice to find the dealer. Thanks. Jeff </div></div> The zone office is effectively the dealer, when it went to the frist dealer it was a used car.

Jeff </div></div>Roy, what other reasons were cars sent to zone offices? At the zone office was there a warehouse or parking lot where the cars were unloaded? </div></div> Can't answer that! I'm sure there was a procedure but I do not have a clue what it was.

I need to run this report on the 1970 Dick Harrell Camaro I found many years ago as we always suspected it came from Van Chevrolet. Sure would be nice to find out if we were correct.

That's cool it was from the Buffalo zone. Typically, the zone office was the charge to dealer and the car was shipped to a local deal for the new car prep work. Usually were cars ordered by zone reps or owners of dealers. If the file on your car showed zone 12, dealer 0....then are these records actually the dealer (location) charged instead of where it was shipped? (Most were the same)
Not sure I've ever seen a car shipped directly to the zone office as per the docs. Warren

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: paceme</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I received mine today #32 & 34 yes!!!!!, well sort of. I now have the zones, but the dealer info is limited.
Car 1 provided Zone 15 Dealer 339, but dealer name and address records are insufficient.. So if anyone has info on that zone and dealer it would be appreciated. Produced 9/8/69 My other car is zone 11 Dealer 372 and list dealer as Max Meyers Motors in Middlebury , IN. Now when I go to their data base and plug the #'s its show McManus Chevy, Chicago , IL 1970. Produced 4/2/69 I really appreciate the information, but for me the dealer info is inconclusive. Thanks again Roy, and good luck to others searching for dealer info. BTW if anyone else has info on the zones listed above, I would appreciate that. Hello Steve, I have some information from 1977 of zone 15 dealer 339. Jay Chevrolet 301 South Burntmill Road Voorhees, NJ 08043 I can not tell you this is the same information for the year of 1969. Regards, Drew Papsun </div></div> |
