Default Re: Anyone hear of George Chevrolet in central NJ?

Jeff,
I grew up in the area. There was a George Chevrolet in New Brunswick (on George St. near Remsen Ave.). In the early '70s it became Flair Chevrolet. The building burned down in '98. I remember buying parts there for my '62. I used to cruise Livingston Ave. in New Brunswick every Fri night. The "Ave" was famous in central NJ. It was just like American Graffiti.
The dealers that catered to high performance cars or had the "right" parts were generally known among the car people, and I do not recall George being mentioned as the place to go for the "hot" stuff. The dealer with the biggest name for that niche was Briggs in So. Amboy.
Probably not a good lead, but I hope this helps.
Verne.
