Great memory Chuck, I think being the original owner is as good as the build sheet. It would be nice to be able get that info though for the Chevy's.
My letter read 4/15/68 build date. I looked it up and it was on a monday, I had to laugh. Tax day too. I noticed my trim tag reads 2nd week of April, the car was built on the 1st day of the 3rd week so pretty tight from tag to assembly.

Got my report back from NCRS. I thought my car came from Milwaukee Wisconsin, boy was I off ! The report says the dealership it was delivered to was C. Bell Chevorlet Co., they were located on Sheldon Ave. Grand Rapids, Mi. Dealer code 22, Zone 45. If you guys ever heard of this place or know if it's still in business please let me know. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Hey Bruce...I had a 1969 Nova SS 350 from Brown & Hoeye. As far as memorbilia when I was hunting down stuff from that dealer I found they had a Decal on trunk lids and License plate frames. Their trunk lid decals were shaped like a Bowtie with rounded top and bottoms and said HONESTLY also. If he needs a couple Brown and Hoeye license plate frames that need restoring send me a PM as I do not have that Nova anymore. Kim
