Re: Looking For Literature on Byrne Chevrolet in NY
The full name is Byrne Bros Chevrolet...they were on Virginia Rd. just off the Bronx River Parkway. Huge place...they sold a ton of cars back in the day. There are still guys in the Westchester County area around who worked there.
I would focus on car clubs/cruise venues perhaps in that area. wilma

Re: Looking For Literature on Byrne Chevrolet in NY
Try this site. This was the local Drag Strip where the Byrne crew would spend their weekends.
http://doverdragstrip.com/ Your 69 spent some time there too I'm sure. I have some Dover decals for you if your interested.

Re: Looking For Literature on Byrne Chevrolet in NY
I found a 'By BYRNE' emblem on the tailgate of a '65 Nova station wagon in a junk yard years ago. I called Frank Arone from the yard to see if he wanted it for his COPO Camaro, he said '....nah, go find me another one...' He was joking of course, I had to tear half the tailgate apart to get that thing... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

He is a real hunter and pays up for the rare memorabilia. FWIW - BB Chevrolet items are incredibly rare. While it was hi-volume and hi-performance, reach was really restricted to the North East. It was not Baldwin Motion or Yenko where the reach was National and in some cases global. Dan

Re: Looking For Literature on Byrne Chevrolet in NY
I apologize, I don't think I was clear. The first 3 photos I posted are not my items. I saved those photos from he internet and was only sharing them for the search.
Tho following catalogs are from my collection:    They are both the same catalog, except for the cover being slightly different. Sorry for the sideways pictures. They are correct on my computer and I can't figure out how to straighten them. Dan, Thank you for the kind words. My collection is definitely faint in comparison to yours. Thanks, Marty
