Default Dunlop Chevrolet, Macon, GA

Don't believe they are in business anymore. Anybody on here have any recollection of this dealership? On a web search the only thing that seems to show up is a Corvair that was sold there. Appreciate it.

Thanks for the input, it appears it was Dunlap.

A search under that title shows a few items, including the obituaries for the previous owner and a mechanic. Appears there is an existing Dunlap Chevrolet in Toledo, OH.

Would like to get an idea of their old LOGO or something to replicate the dealer decal for their sold cars.

Wonder if the dealership has possibly changed names over the years.

I'll dig through my notes, I spoke to someone there several years ago.

Called Youmans Chevrolet today Troy and talked to the sweetest "Southern Bell" receptionist named Jeanelda (now that's a name ). Anyway, she has been with Youmans for about 26 years and they took over Dunlap sometime in the early 1980's. She gave me the email address for the General Manager who will be back at the dealership later this week. She also mentioned the Youman family have all kinds of old pictures and such. Maybe the GM can provide me with a copy of a picture or logo or something. We'll see what develops.
