Southern CA dealership help!!

[Mikes12zl1]

Hello everyone I'd like to introduce myself I am new to yenko.net but have been a camaro guy for a few years now. Got hooked on super cars when got a chance to attend the muscle car nationals in Chicago this past year. I am from North Carolina so am unfamiliar with the west coast. I recently purchased a 69 camaro LM1 that was build in Van Nuys and stayed in that vicinity it's whole life until coming to NC. I spoke with the original owner a few days ago and he told me that he bought the car in Brea CA but could not remember the name of the dealership.The only dealership I could find was Guardian Chevrolet. Does anyone know of any other dealerships in the Brea CA area. Thanks in advance!

Isn't it La Brea? Or is that just a street in LA?

Welcome Mike! I didn't grow up in SoCal so my history on dealers is very limited. Dana who goes by 427freak might have an idea since he lives farther South than I do.

Thanks guys! Any dealership info on Guardian chevy would be appreciated. Does anyone know if it's still in operation and if not when did it shut down? Anyone have any memorabilia?

I grew up in La Habra down the street from Don Steve's Chevrolet. He came to our elementary school for career day or something like that. GM yanked the dealership and they are selling used cars out of there now. Don Steve's son was running it but committed suicide a few years back, very sad. A lot of history came out of there.

Brea is next door, pretty small town. I don't remember a Guardian Chevrolet on Brea Bl. I'll look up the address.
