Re: Taylor Chevrolet - Rochester NY
 

I came across this post, and I too am looking for the dealer codes for Taylor Chevrolet, my 72 LS-5 chevelle was sold new there, I guess the original post was from a guy named mike? I don't know how to contact him, if possible could you forward this post to that person, maybe we can figure out the codes , thanks Jeff

Dealer code for Taylor is 12-656. I have address as 175 Winton Road No. at Blossom Rd.

Got the info from a 68 warranty book and 71 chevelle window sticker.

Here's a more recent pic that may as well land here, unconfirmed but likely the same car.
Still called CheckMate w/ Tom Fletcher's name on it too but Gary Hettler on the hood.

That's the same car. Dan inherited the car when his Dad Tom died. He hit the NHRA circuit and never looked back. I know he has 100 or more Class Wins. Pretty sure this is what the car looks like today, past major sponsors were Summit Racing (with a 1/18 scale model) and K&N Filters. Dan is a class act with two sons following his lead.

I know of one other local Z/28 that also left Taylor Chevrolet and went straight to the race track.

Thanks for the great update and so cool how well Dan's done w/ his Dad's car!
Here's the article I linked previously which is a few years old now, is it still the winningest car in NHRA history?:hmmm:
