Since 1921, I wonder if it's oldest Chevy dealership in Ca. or in the USA?

Thanks for the info Rich, but those are more of a fancy repop's, I'm looking for more of a used "real McCoy's" set and there out there too (for an arm and a leg).

Thanks again buddy and I hope you can make it here on the 4th of October!

For the car guy in So Cal, Felix Chevrolet memorabilia is THE stuff to have. That stuff is highly coveted by the lowrider guys in particular. My only Felix Chevrolet item is my magnetic Felix figurine that rides on top of my rearview mirror.

I'm digging' the truck and how the lettering turned out. It's time for an "altitude" adjustment! What do you have planned? And don't say you aren't sure because we all know better........

Is the cat out of the bag?

Once upon a time I said I would never put the Felix license frames on, I got burned out seeing them everywhere.

Right now about a 6 inch drop, maybe bags later.

NEWFISHER · 08-03-2014, 12:48 AM

Man, it must be a pretty popular place if people are making re-pops of the dealership license plate frames. Live & learn.

NEWFISHER · 08-03-2014, 09:42 PM

Welcome to California.

likaroc13 · 08-03-2014, 10:07 PM

Very cool Rene! Look forward to seeing it with an altitude adjustment. Btw, you didn't have me fooled.

I read that first post & was trying to figure out why some folks hadn't caught on yet.

**KevsClassics** · 08-04-2014, 10:44 AM

Under the knife now.

**Ol Blue K20** · 08-04-2014, 11:22 AM

How cool it would be to own that truck or any 60's truck purchased from Felix Chevrolet. Check out some Felix memorabilia from ebay.

Do you have a link to any of the Felix Ebay stuff. .... ?

I love this truck Rene .... WAY KOOL .....!

scuderia · 08-06-2014, 01:44 AM

Not to hijack the thread but since we are talking of old California dealers... my truck was sold at Friendly Chevrolet in Escalon CA (about an hour from Fremont where it was built). Seems they went under in 2008. Anyone one know anything about the dealership?

**KevsClassics** · 08-06-2014, 08:11 PM

Ok what you guys think?
