JoeC,
Thanks for sharing the YouTube video link. No, that's the first time I'd seen it. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it! Earlier in this thread I mentioned a guy I've known for years from Upper Marlboro, MD. He's the one who sent me those '65 Daytona Impala shots. Well, he and I and other Corvette & Chevy enthusiasts would hang out in this local shop during the weekends to work on our cars. Back in the 1990's. Not far from old Marlboro Raceway and Lowe Chevrolet. Just across the street was his dad's house. Guess who his dad's personal dentist was for decades? Dr. Dick Thompson. I kid you not!

Good Morning Guys,
I've enjoyed sharing my best Rosenthal Chevrolet memorabilia with you all. I was hoping that anyone with any other Rosenthal stuff would post it here. It would be great to see a shot of your Chevrolet muscle car sold from there too. I'd enjoy seeing anything you have to share. Hopefully I've added to your collections. Bob Rosenthal also liked the Corvette and always had a fine stock on hand. Many high performance Corvettes came from this dealership. Here's a very clear version of a 1965 sales poster from there. Check out this list of high redline screamers! (8) 365HP and (5) 375HP "Fuelies." All highly sought after cars now. Enjoy, Mike Last edited by VetteSpaz; 05-06-2022 at 10:16 AM. |

JoeC,
Excellent Info! Just what the doctor ordered. In all my years of digging I never knew that Rosenthal Chevrolet ordered the 1st '67 L88 Corvette. My buddies are gonna eat this up! The power of Yenko.net. You guys are very knowledgeable! Okay, I'll kick it off. Anybody with a Camaro, Chevelle, Impala, Nova, Corvette, what have you please post a shot of your classic '50s, '60s or '70s Chevrolet car here just as long as it was sold new from Rosenthal Chevrolet Co. Any car photos, documents and stories you'd care to share. I'd get a kick out of seeing your ride. Here's mine. 2 owner 1965 Corvette 327/350HP/transistorized ignition with 3.55 posi and Muncie 4 Speed close ratio tranny. All original numbers. She's a blast to drive!

Good Morning Guys,
Here's another shot I just found of the 1965 427 Impala NASCAR grand national stock car I'd posted early on. Compare this photo to those on page one, post #4. Mike |

Don't know if the garage shot car is the real deal or a clone? But just the same she's bad to the bone!
A black and white shot from back in the day. Mike |
