I'll give him a call. Edit:
He started working there in August of 1970.
He said the sales manager at the time the Nova was sold would have been Jack Arnold.

Sorry I couldn't get more info.

On a side note I vividly remember his demo in 1973/74 (I was around 6 years old) It was a red/white top S3 Laguna 454/4 speed.That thing was NICE.

There are also a few Courtesy Chevrolets near by.

As far as I know it is. I do not live in that area anymore but it was there last time I was down that way.

I think Courtesy was in Ventura and Thousand Oaks. Very close by.

Hal Watkins was the Chevy dealer in Oxnard at that time. I've got the P-O-P from a '67 Z that came through the dealership. I believe Ventura was Jack Crawford Chevrolet back then. I have an ad for a '68 L79 Chevy II from Washburn Chevrolet which was the Santa Barbara Chevy dealer back then. I'll have to find it and email you a copy, Jeff.

That black one is cool.
