Default Any Chi-Town members know Mancuso Chev. in Skokie?

Looking for any leads on Mancuso Chevrolet located in Skokie. I found a Mauro Chevrolet that recently became Sharp Chevrolet still in business, but not sure if this was Mancuso Chevrolet at one time?

What do you need ??? It was in the next town over and I know they sold plenty of Hipo as well as being in the Yenko Deuce network...know a couple of nice cars that came out of mancuso...in fact I was on the way to Sixtiesmuscle's house a while back and pulled up behind an older gent driving a mid 70's Vette with the Mancuso shield on the back ...

That is a well known name around here for decades.
To add to what Bob said,I remember they used to be at 4700 Golf rd.Dealer 359,zone 11 in the early 1970's then 8130 Lincoln Avenue in Skokie,from some paperwork I have on them.
Then later still at 501 Green Bay rd. in Wilmette.
That later became Mauro Chevrolet is at 4700 Golf rd. in Skokie.,&amp; now today are Sharp Chevrolet at that same address.

Now that I'm thinking about it...I think the Ferrari dealer in Lake Forest is owned by Mancuso family !!! I don't recall the Lincold site being a dealer..it may have ben a holding lot or something..

Mancuso sold three Yenko Deuces. Here is a Yenko Deuce sales flier that Mancuso gave out.
