I can help with a few things here (my comments in red)...

Hopefully this is not too much of a thread hi-jack/history lesson but here goes: (Bill S. can verify)

Richard had a shop (Classic Motors) in Joliet that was the old Bill Jacobs Chevy building. <font color="red">Correct. </font>

Richard's shop in Hinsdale was the former Jack Douglass Chevy building. I believe Hinsdale was prior to Joliet. <font color="red">Also correct. </font>

After Joliet, his shop was on Ogden Avenue in Westmont (just a few miles west of the Hinsdale location) <font color="red"> I remember seeing a HO Yenko Deuce sitting outside a shop in this general vicinity, but was not aware that Richard Buxbaum had anything to do with the shop. </font>

I have not personally seen or spoken to Richard in many years but from what I hear he is still active in the collector car market. The Classic Motors name is still in use by Bob Zimmerman "Stretch" in Naperville.
