Dealer Emblems and Stickers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

4793 · 10-09-2023, 10:31 AM

If memory serves the Wehrs family started out in 1935 selling Allis-Chalmers farm equipment as well as Chevrolet vehicles. I don't recall when they quit A-C, but I bought this truck from them in 2011 and within 5 years or so they had given up the Chevrolet franchise.

I know some folks don't like giving a dealer free advertising. It never bothered me. As I've gotten older and a lot of things I thought were permanent have disappeared, preserving that little bit of history you get with a dealer sticker has some value. It also serves as an indicator of how many owners a vehicle may have had.

These cheezy chrome dealer emblems are nicer than any trim put on the most expensive cars today

I feel kind of the same. I always removed the emblems, never liked them. It's not about free advertising, just didn't want it stuck on my truck. But I had an '85 Jimmy that came from a local GMC/White Tractor dealership and I cherished that decal on the tailgate. The dealership is gone now, but they started out selling horse-drawn farm equipment before GMC made a truck or Oliver made a tractor. Knott & Geisbert, and it was still in both families. In my owners manual cover booklet there was a Knott & Geisbert business card with a Knott being Service manager and a Geisbert being the sales manager
