Default NOS Colonial Chevrolet dealer emblem

Pretty rare piece, never seen a NOS emblem in this style. Not mine, just passing along the link in case someone is looking....

FYI, That's because it is not the right Colonial. I don't even think it's from a Chevrolet dealer. The right one for Colonial Chevrolet in Norfolk VA is a rectangle with all capital letters.

Interesting. Joe, Tony, I saw this as well and thought for sure it was a correct piece from the Va. dealer. Still, a pretty looking emblem.

Makes sense, I know I have one of the Norfolk type, but assumed they were different vintage emblems from the same dealer.

Did the Wilmington Colonial sell any hi-po stuff in significant numbers?
