Kahan Lees Summit Missouri
 
Does anyone know much or have anything from Kahan when they were still a dealer? I have an L-71 Corvette from them.

Based on what I am reading in old ads, Don Kahan bought out Willey Chevrolet in late 1965 located at: 220 South Douglas Street, Lee's Summit Mo. I'm seeing ads through 1976 and then they stopped.
Dealer zone 5 code 433
Phone number LA4-6000

Ads run under Kahan Chevrolet and Don Kahan Chevrolet.

Hope this helps,

Paul

Kahan sold Chevys up until 2009. They lost their franchise in the purge, but still exist as a used car dealer.

What they said above also if you haven't seen them yet, there's often Kahan dealer emblems on eBay too.
Here's a link below to one on eBay now also a crappy pic from near the end of their operation.

Not that I've heard. At least not in the same league as some other KC-area dealers like Van Chevrolet or Tall Paul's Ford or Sites Bros. Plymouth.

Looks like Kahan spent more advertising money on their used cars then new.
