My 67 Camaro sold new at Herron Motors. I've been trying forever to find old dealer items, but have had no luck. I've called the new dealership and spoke to some people there. There is one lady in the accounting office that use to work at the dealership when it was Herron Motors, but thats it. The dealership still exists its new name is Addison and its at the same address. There is a previous link under COPO-Canada my buddy posted when I bought my car. If you find any info or items please let me know.

Do you have any dealer memorbilia or know anybody that does? I contacted the local newspaper there to see if they could go through their old microfilm to get an ad for that dealer. B/c of GM of Canada docs I know what day my car got shipped there. Too much messin around being from the US they told me. I would love to get something for my car from the dealer. Let me know if you got anything?

I think Herron is the dealership that Bob Harris's '69 Copo Camaro came from. He had an original sticker duplicated from another copo sold from that dealership to put on his car. He may be able to have more done up. It is a rectangular sticker, approximately 1-1/2&quot; x 4&quot; lg. and just has the name on it.

My old G M Vintage Services documentation from years back says my 1968 Z'ed was delivered in mid Winter '68 to Herron Motors, 1289 Stanley St. Cooksville Ontario - Dealer code #95108.
Seems to me I also tried maybe 15 - 20 years back to see if I could determine if they were still in business with no luck - guess I see why now.
Sure would have liked to have found out the name of the first owner of my car who I was told was an NHL player. Second owner bought it off the used car lot so I guess I'll never know.

The Chevy 11 and the Camaro are Bruce Gowland race cars. They live very close to me. Later they were very competitive with Tractor Pulling.
