I also had car delivered to that dealer. My car was original paint and saw no dealer ID on car at all. Would be interested to see if someone has one. Thanks George

I live about 10 miles from where Joslin Chevrolet used to be. The current dealer, Williams Chevrolet, is in the same building. Joslin has been gone for probably at least 25 years. They were not know as a hipo dealer, but did sell some performance cars back in the day.

At one time they had a metal trunk nameplate, but I haven’t seen one in a long time. Any others questions I can try to answer.

I was trying to think of when they moved from the downtown location to the new dealership building, which is still where the local Chevy dealer does business today. I knew it had to be 1970 plus or minus a year or two. Looks like it was 1970.

Thanks for posting those ads, brings back some memories.
