West End Chevrolet, Norwood MA

I'm looking for the metal or decal dealer emblem from "West End Chevrolet," in Norwood Mass circa 1970. The dealer was sold in the mid '70's. Any help appreciated. Also any old pics or info on this dealership. Also any one with a Hechler Chevrolet car from Richmond VA send me an email. I am good friends with the owners and there is a possibilty that there might still be dealer paperwork in storage. Thanks a bunch.. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

I have asked a couple of guys and some remember West End Chevrolet being in Waltham ( not far from Norwood ) Let me beat the bushes and see what happens. I have a collection of dealer ad license plates, let me go through that as well. Tim [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Thanks..the dealership was in Waltham...I also would be interested in knowing what other Chevrolet dealers were in that general area during the musclecar era. What about Macmoran Chevrolet any info on them? TIA

------I have mentioned Lee Chevrolet in Wellesley Mass before and it didnt elicit much interest.I bought my 66 Vette 427/425 new there and in 69 was looking for a car and happened into Lee one June day to see a truck full of what I know today were COPO Chevelles.I dont know that they all stayed there,but one really caught my eye and Jim(the performance salesman)tried to sell it to me but,sadly,I was to dumb to buy it and ended up with a 396/350 Camaro.The COPO was silver with a blue vinyl bucket interior and blue vinyl top.Interestingly,it had black optional SS stripes on it.I remember thinking that it wasnt real cool because it wasnt an SS,even if it did have the big engine.Never saw the car again!..............Bill S

Guys, I will try to get the information. I currently work for a oil distributor that supplied ALL of these dealers since the'60s We still have a sales rep that called on ALL of these guys. ( 72 and still selling ) We are located around the corner from Berejik Olds ( now gone as well ) they campained a bunch of Olds Super Stock stuff in the late '60s and '70s . I will start picking brains. I love the Sherlock Holmes stuff, It's one of the best parts of the hobby. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

Sad about Berejik...forced out of business by Olds, as far as I heard from talking to the last salesman there.
