Zone/Dealer codes

[Chevy454]

Here are a couple pages with zone/dealer searches. I *believe* they use the same database, but check them both to make sure.

http://www.chevelles.com/zones/index.shtml

http://www.ncrs.org/dealercode/dealerzone.html

Take a look, and if you've got any zone/dealer info, PLEASE enter it!

[copo9566aa]

Wow cheap for the zone 86 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif
I donate many codes or info but it's removed by....

I've been adding info to that site for years. Still no luck on the ID of this dealer.

I am trying to find out info on dealer 14 504 Mass? and 02 047 New York? It is not listed on data base? Thanks For any help.

[PeteLeathersac]

Here's the link to the new NCRS dealer code page..

http://www.ncrs.org/dealercodes.php

Not all info is there but best results are often found by entering in the least amount of known info first and sifting though the results..
Keep in mind Dealer Codes and sometimes Zones #'s changed through the years!.

Here below is a list of Zone Codes and their central locations which should help searching!.
Note Zone # 02 is listed as Tonawanda also Zone # 14 as MD..

Good luck!.

[1967Z28]

I got a Chevy Muscle Docs report today and it said zone 49, dealer number 545 but &quot;unfortunately the dealer info is not listed in the GM documents&quot;. Anybody have any idea what dealership this might be? The year is 1967. Ammon R. Smith in York, PA is zone 49 dealer code 540 so maybe this place was nearby? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

[PeteLeathersac]

Have you tried Al G. on yet Jon?
If the original dealer assigned the code, alphabetically their name may be between 49/540 - Ammon R. Smith and the next known code...49/550 - Staub Chevrolet in New Oxford PA so between these?
Not sure how old some are but here are a few alphabetically close PA dealers w/ unknown codes noted below, anyone w/ these please step up...surely someone has Yenko Network dealer Roy Stauffer?

I guess I don't know who Al G. is, unless I'm having a senior moment. I also didn't know that the dealer numbers went up alphabetically so that's a nice tip. Thank you very much, Pete.

[PeteLeathersac]

Best is always use the alphabetical thing only as a guide but that said, a 2'nd Smith would sure make sense also other Smiths coming after Ammon Smith even more so?
And it's Al Grenning the 'Vette guy that may be able to help w/ old dealer codes, here's his website and email below.
Good luck and thanks Jon, I've spent countless hours enjoying all your great Z-28 and Trans-Am research also other postings!

Nankivell Chevrolet in Indianapolis, IN is 25-373 during 1970. Pic is of the back of my POP:

[RatZ]

Hi all,
I just got the shipping data report for my 71 Z28. It gave me the production date of 05/05/1971 and the Zone code of 18 which I know is Des Moines, IA. The report also gave me the dealer code of 491, but stated: &quot;Unfortunately the GM listing does not have the name for this Dealer.&quot;

Does anyone know the name of this dealer or know where I might be able to get this info? I appreciate any help you can offer. I did post this info in another section on this website, but then I saw these posts that pertain more to my info quest. Thanks.

[fsc66]

Just a little help. The Dealer codes were distributed alphabetically excet in some cases whjere a delaer took over another dealer's location and inherited the dealer code. Dealer 490 shows as Lightsinn Motors and the next showing On the NCRS search base is 496 Kudick Chevrolet. Therefore, your dealer should fall alphabetically between the 2. Next step, call the Des Moines public library reference dep't and ask them to look for a Chevrolet dealer who's name begins with &quot;Li&quot; through &quot;Ku&quot; in Des Moines, can't bee too many. Sometimes, if you get a cooperative research person they will go out of their way to help.
This will not be 100% but pretty close. Also ask them to use the business directories for 1971, dealers moved around and sold out here and there so you know yours was there in 71.

Paul

[fsc66]

Update:
I contacted the library in Des Moines and this is the e-mail I received back:

Hi Paul,

The only Chevrolet dealers I find in the Des Moines phonebook and city directory in 1971 are:

Bob Brown Chevrolet 4224 Merle Hay Road
Crescent Chevrolet 555 17th Street
Howlett Chevrolet 623 East Grand Avenue

There has been a Chevrolet dealer in Davenport since the 1950s called Lujack Chevrolet, if that's any help.


Burke
Des Moines Public Library

Now I would have bet anything Lujack was the answer but speaking to Lujack, they have always been in Davenport and their reported zone and code are: 11 387 and 47 388 although their name fit the bill perfectly. I guess the searc goes on.
Aslo checked all of the above dealers and they each are listed in the NCRS with codes that did not match.

I ran my Camaro through NCRS and they reported...
<span style="font-weight: bold">Production Date: 2/4/1969
Dealer Zone: #16
Dealer Code: #708

Zone # 16 is located in NC or SC.

Unfortunately the GM documents do not list the dealer name or location for this dealer.
</span>
The POP says.....
16-535-06
North State Chevrolet Co.
Greensboro, NC

Could it have been because of a dealer trade?
Does anyone have info on Zone 16, Dealer code 708?
Thanks,
Jim

[fsc66]

Jim,
Yes looks like a Dealer Trade, Your POP shows zone 16 dealer 535 which is North State Chevrolet, your most likely selling dealer. Unfortunately, NCRS and Chevy Muscle Docs falls short on identifying Dealers at times but you always have us to help: <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif. Dealer 16 Zone 708 is Smith Chevrolet 508 W. Franklin Ave, Gastonia, NC. I also clipped 2 ads for you that display a 69 Camaro, figured you'd enjoy. See below:

Awesome! Thanks Paul! Do you have a copy of anything that shows that? I know they will want to see some supporting paperwork before they put Smith Chevrolet on their report. I will ask them anyway....but I'm sure they will ask for some kind of example. Ps - the stuff you did for me on my LS6 rag was fantastic!

Does anyone know the name of this dealer by chance? I appreciate any help you can offer. I found some info which indicated it might be Bird Chevrolet, in Dubuque, Iowa, which I understand is still in business.

anybody have info on zone 14 dealer 251? NCRS claims that zone 14 is only MD, VA, and DC, but 3 dealers in southern PA have come back in zone 14. So far, NCRS won't re-issue my paperwork with some southern PA dealers included in zone 14! Maybe if I could identify the dealer (251) they would reconsider. Any help would be appreciated.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Sunderland at that same address was zone 49 dealer code 580

Agree, I have a 'Vette build sheet from '76 that has 49-580 as Sunderland, not sure they weren't 497 before that so....quite frustrating!!

My NCRS docs came back 3 years ago for my 1969 Chevelle postcar as Harris Chevrolet-Oldsmobile, Inc. in Hannibal, MO. However, reliable sources from this site have told me it could be Hauck Chevrolet in Waynesville, MO. I've been told Harris was in business until 1988 and then became Fred Bates Chevrolet.

Hello ssl78,
The NCRS report indicates Zone 13 Dealer 687 for your 1967.
The zone office will change the dealer number for the same dealer name over at any time.
Your search on the data base lists a different name for the same numbers.
What year was did this change happen?
The data base is update by people with their information of the dealer.
Call me if you have more questions.

Although all the research I told you I had done did not result in any directory listing for Richard Chevrolet in Bellaire, OH, I just came across an original window sticker from 1967 I had in my database that proves the information you received from NCRS is correct:

Richard Chevrolet - Bellaire Ohio
Riehle Chevrolet - Greensburg PA Inc. 1969
Star Chevrolet - Greensburg PA

Hope this helps,
Paul

Anyone know the dealer name/town? Name not in the NCRS database.


Thanks,

Where is that zone and dealer code coming from, curious?
Did you try ordering the Chevy Muscle Docs report?

Yes, that info came from Chevy Muscle Docs for my 69 Chevelle VIN. But their data base did not include the dealer name and town.

Right ok, I only have 545 and then 548. Sorry.....

Thanks for checking. I am assuming its a name that starts with an R in Ga or SC so as I have time I've been checking old paper ads thru out the region looking for clues.

I'm guessing there is not a way to do what you are trying to do, without the DMV records, since the plates were not created for a specific dealer (unlike the literature which is the subject of this thread).

The leading digit might indicate a region, perhaps by county (like the standard Ohio plates*). If you can find an original plate still in the paper wrapper there might be a legend printed on it to help you decode, to narrow your search. I have seen this on some of the Michigan Dealer plates in my collection. Mine where handed down directly so I know the dealer (and salesperson) for the plates in my possession.

*My college roommate worked for New Departure Hyatt in Sandusky and had access to GM company owned vehicles. He was driving a company car one time with an Ohio manufacturer plate, which was stamped "Special" in the location where the county information normally appears.

A woman stopped him while he was putting gas in it, and she said: "...ya know, I've lived in Ohio my whole life, and I don't know where 'Special' county is...."

ok well thanks anyway thats what i figured was there would be no way to find out. if i'm not mistaken "special" is a government plate. meet a guy at a swap meet and thats all he collected was government plates.

If he doesn't appear here first, PM Member fsc66 Paul as his Database is much more extensive than NCRS or others.
