    Showroom 68-72 Photos.

    Hi,
    Here are some photos from High School Yearbook ads that are pretty interesting.
    They were found and posted by someone at CF and are from a site named annualmobiles.
    I hope they bring back some good memories!
    Regards,
    Alan

      Thanks for sharing Alan.

      Just think. Some of those cars could be in the midst of our membership yet today!

      Also, I don't know who Selman Chevrolet is, but I like their business model. Look at the other cars in their showroom photos...

        Great pictures.
        The '68 from Banner has the cool Chevrolet Sports Department signage in the background.

          Thanks Alan, the hair styles really date those pictures, I can remember myself sitting in a Ontario Orange C3 in the local dealership and dreaming of one day owning one.

            Selmans have been around for a long time. I know of a couple of 62's sold new there, a white/red 340 car and a red/black fuelie.

              I lived about four miles from Patterson Chevrolet during my high school years (early '70s). Patterson had one of the best parts inventories around so I was there once a month or so. While on my way to the parts department getting something for my eight year old Impala, I usually strolled through the showroom to admire the high-performance hardware on display. Coming of age during that era probably explains my passion for early '70 Corvettes.

              The bumper guard-to-grille gaps shown in the first photo make me feel better about the apparent TFP alignment of these parts on my car.

                  Hi Blair,
                  About the era of the latest of those pics but I was about 10 years older than those kids.

                      Hi,
                      Ralph Spears asked me to post these pictures of his early cars… a 69 and a 73.
                      I hope he'll add some details.
                      Regards,
                      Alan

                        Well, if we are sharing, here I am just after I purchased my '69 near Fort Totten in Bayside, Queens in March '71, bell bottoms, shearling coat, etc.
