    Swepstones Chevrolet, Laurelville Ohio

    Looking for information on Swepstones Chevrolet, Dealer code 591, in zone 9.
    The dealership appears to not exist today.
    Laurelville is a small town south of Columbus. I have done the usual searches and turned up nothing.

    I have a 1972 coupe, Classic White, base engine, fully optioned ex the rear window defroster, serial number 523089. The car was first registered / imported into Ontario Canada on November 11, 1976. Owner at that time was Danny J. Stergiou of Downsview Ontario. I have ownership information from November 1976 to the present.

    Any assistance greatly appreciated,
    Chris

      Dino is right. I found a previous owner of our car by just calling a NAPA parts store in a really small town and asking for the oldest employee there. He knew who I was looking for without me even having a name.
      Also, if there's a local cafe where the "old guys" hang out for coffee you may find someone who remebers.

          Hi Chris !

          I started digging around for records on Swepstones when you first posted this. I found nothing. Tonight, I drafted a letter to the historical society of Hocking county for you. Hopefully they might be able to provide some clues. Fingers crossed.
