Does anyone know if the Reedman dealership was a dealer that dealt with special order cars, and some back ground. I am more curious now than anything on the history of the dealership.

Yes.. Reedmans was huge back in the day. Most likely the largest dealership in the US (or at least that what they claimed) back them. They even had their own test track to test drive cars on that was off the street. They dealt in all kinds of rare special ordered cars back in the 60's and 70's..

Yes they did sell them, I know of a white and a orange 69 copo from there. My buddy has 2 68 L78 novas from there. And when I bought my Tahoe a few years back I test drove it on a little track. I am not sure if that is the same track as back then.

Reedman sold several well known LS6 Chevelles. Here are a couple of threads from past discussions regarding Reedman.

Hi,

My LS6 Chevelle came from Reedman Chevrolet as well. They sold a lot of high performance iron back in the day.

Was the test track an oval or a 1/4 mile strip, or both?

It does not show but the dealership is huge. It may be 1/2 mile from Rt 1 to maple ave and the dealership goes to the other side of maple another 1/4 mile. They even have their own 2 lane bridge for getting over maple ave..
