Here a few Old Newspaper Ads w/ some of the action happening at Jack Douglass through the glory years.
Keep in mind, the bulk of their advertising was for Corvettes and Cadillacs also we’re at the mercy of what’s been scanned but below ads mostly Non-Corvette Performance cars although I couldn’t help but include some of the best ones also other ads well worth reading too.
Besides yet more proof Chicago was a Musclecar Hotbed, it’s interesting JD seemed to order their performance cars in batches also strange if initially unaware of the ‘69 Copo program and hooked up w/ Yenko for L72 cars before ordering directly from Chevrolet when he found out?
Ads are chronological also as info above, 1969 appears to be the only year w/ Yenko association.
Looks like lots of L78 Novas also Pacers out there to be found, anyone please speak up if you recognize anything or want to try searching specific cars.
