Can any western PA member tell me if Kenny Ross was the dealer in Zelionople, Pa in 1970 and is it still the same ownership today or just kept the name ? Anyone ever check with this dealer to document an old car ? Thank You

Albert, that sounds like a great start. I'm looking to see if anything may exist on a pretty good '70 Z RS 4spd Daytona Yellow, 3pc spoiler car I just bought. Owner from 1974 confirmed it came from Kenny Ross. Supposedly stayed in that area all its life til now. Keep me posted Albert.

Didn't Kenny Ross commercials always have his mother or grandmother (some sweet ol' gal) encouraging car buyers to buy from his son/grandson?

Kenny Ross was a Big dealer back in 70 Had a 70 LS-5 conv that came from there as well as a LS-6 . The family still runs the dealer but I beleive it moved. I chased the original sale papers for both. They have them archived in an old mine and may be if Your local You can get somewhere !!
