    Dealer 584 from Zone 05 circa 1967

    I continue in my 8 year search for the identity of dealer 584 from Zone 05 (kansas city zone) circa 1967. My most recent leads have lead me down another dead end road. Idea's?

    Hi Brian,Try to contact the local GMAC Branch office in Kansas City. They might still have the records on microfilm of the dealers in that zone back in 1967. Hope this might help. Good Luck.Save the Wave.>George

        I have spoken with both GMAC and the Pappas family, GMAC was of no help at all. The Pappas family did give me a couple of leads all resulting in dead ends. I do follow all leads. I have run an ad in the Kansas City Star, have numerous ad's on the internet, have run E-Bay ad's looking for this info, had flyers made up and distributed at a car show in the town (chillicothe Mo.) that the car was registered in 1970-72, Etc. Etc. Etc. Oh yeah I tried joining NICB but they wouldn't have me. I've been doing this for 8 years now. Any more idea's?
        And yes I have spoken with Al Grenning, 584 is not in his data file.

          Brian,

          Couple of ideas: Look in your local library (or call KC library - remember two cities - two states) for yellow pages circa 67 including newspapers for auto ads. More than likely, the dealerships advertised as they do today. It will take alot of phone calls, but each may be able to give you some additional clue.

          Another member once gave me some digital copies of the zone/dealer # book (which has since disappeared) which had the phone numbers of what I remember to be the GM Distribution Center (or something similar). This may be a different entity than GMAC and could have the info you're looking for.

          Assuming you have your car insured, you may be able to ask your insurer to get the info you are seeking. Hope this helps.

            Would a Feld Chevrolet be possible? They were located in downtown KCK at least during the mid to late 50's and maybe the 60's. I left for the Army and never returned to KC--just a long shot. Oh, memory not so good these days but think there was also a Coburn Chevrolet on the Missouri side (not very sure on this one).

              Thanks Bill, But Al Grenning leads me to the letters Ne thru NI as first couple of letters in the dealers name. I did receive a lead last night that I hope pans out.
