Got a reply back on my order 1096 today, saying no information on VIN 124677L117xxx  :(  Anyone else have a problem with early 67 LOS documents?

Today I received an email from Marilyn Heitzman, stating that an error was made and they do have info on my car!  Not sure how they discovered this, unless the "no hits" were being re-looked, but this news made my day.  A credit had already been issued so I'll place a new order tonight.

A week ago I posted that NCRS sent me my car dealer #166 in zone#35. they had no info on that dealer #. During an extensive on-line search I found on
www.drnew.com and one other site that a "Judge Chevrolet" and sometime after added olds and geo to there name. It was a 60s thru 80s dealer changing to "Beacon Chevy" after that, going out of business around 2000 in Hightstown NJ. This dealership name would fit perfectly before "June Chevrolet" that was dealer #167. I even have a pic. of it before it was recently torn down and rebuilt as part of a strip mall area. Any thoughts on this. Any one from that area? Thanks, Gary.

Good news is that the dealership is still in business!
I'm not sure if that is good news, it wasn't for me! :( Everything old was dumped years ago....
They often don't have any possibilities to save old stuff....

Still no one out there that have seen any stuff from dealer Svanda-Meyer Chevrolet in Sparta, Illinois??

I just got my letter from NCRS in the mail today and finally know where my 68 327/275 was shipped!  The letter indicates it shipped from Norwood on 15 Nov 67 which lines up with the 11B build date.  It went to Luby Chevrolet in Miami Florida (Dealer Code 328 and Zone 26).  I entered the info on the NCRS site as they had nothing and also did a quick search online for this dealer but came up empty.  Has anyone heard of this dealer?  Are they maybe still around under a different name?

Is there a way to contact someone who added to the list? I searched my original dealer and found on the notes that one person has complete invoices for cars from 64-72. But I have no clue who posted it.

Anyone have cars from Scuncio Chevy, Zone 32 Dealer 613, Scher Chevy Zone 32, Dealer 608 and Konners Chevy Zone 32, Dealer 391. Check out Detroit Horsepower Forum, a guy named Ed had or has lots of paper on Camaros, Chevelles and novas. Old post from 2006.

Camaro boy, I think your talking about the NCRS web page on Chevy Muscle Docs. I think it's the same information you already have.

Yes it's on the NCRS site but their is a notes section on the far right, usually is where the info is from, but on one of the results on the dealership the car is from states that individual has complete invoices from 64-72. I guess my question then is a factory invoice the shipping data, or more like a window sticker/build sheet?

So I guess if you have a car sent to a Zone office, you are done. No way to find out anything correct??
Dealer 0 Zone 30.

It would appear that we're SOL. :(

Not necessarily guys, contact the current zone office, see who was the zone manager or his assistant try to contact one of them. Maybe you have Mr. Perkin's Camaro, or Mr. Campbell's Camaro, or the Camaro that went to the New York Worlds Fair, if you just quit you won't find out anything for sure.

How would you go about contacting the current Zone office, is this public info?

No luck here after looking into locating the zone office. I don't believe there are zone offices anymore well at least not in Alabama.
Maybe someone else had better luck?

The current zone office for North Alabama dealers is in Mississippi (Jackson or Meridian?) ..  but back in the late '60's and early '70's it was in Birmingham.  Since then it moved to Atlanta, and then to Dallas area, but now is in MS...

The 'zone office' code seems to represent the distribution center servicing the dealer for spare parts (and perhaps other things)...
