Hi Gang, I went home to London recently and found some treasures.
This is a super rare and very hard to come by dealer emblem from the infamous Central Chev Olds in London.
A good friend of mine had a few COPOs from there and as I understand it, they were the leading HiPo Chevy dealer in Canada circa 1969.
This emblem is new old stock (NOS) and has certainly never been mounted as evidenced by the virgin posts on the back. It is about 55 years old and shows a tiny bit of oxidation from just sitting - that will buff out maybe or will certainly make a superior candidate for replating if you want something PERFECT.
I wouldn't hesitate to run it as is on my car or any vehicle; it presents nicely.
If you have a car from this dealer, this is for you.
Or if you're a collector of rare dealer emblems, this would be a great wall hanger or for a poster board at a show...
I've added several up close photos to present it as honestly as possible. And while I'm at it, I do want to say, it presents in real life better than in these photos. You will not be disappointed, I feel.
