Thanks Rick. I feel really good about being able to provide him with an original dealer emblem. That car sure deserves it! So, it's really the FIRST Z-28 huh? Man, what a special car!!!

Verne,

Yes, it is going back to race trim like you see in the picture from Daytona.

Wow, good find and it's going on the right car. Find another, Verne, my 18k mile LS6 came from Aero!

Dave,
I don't know if I'll be going back there or not. I probably should because there are several cars I didn't get to see. I think we got about 20 documented to add to the dbase. I'll keep my eyes open for you. Anyone know how long AERO was in business?

They were established in 1920 and went out of business circa 1980.

WOW! That's some legacy! I wonder how many Chevrolet dealers there were across the US in 1920. I know in 1963 there were about 6800.

By the way, I just got back from the P.O.
It's taped to a piece of wood in a padded envelope so it "should" survive the trip.

Looking forward to its arrival and hopefully it will be in one piece. Thanks again, Verne!
