Anyone have any old Canadian Pontiac dealership keychains.
I have a bunch. They are still packed away from the move a few years ago, but some of those I remember are: Hearn Pontiac, Old Mill Pont, Ross Wemp Chev as well as others I have once worked at.
really we need stories ,what years were you at these dealers?
I started working at GM dealerships in early 1973. As an idealistic youth, I thought as a mechanic I would be working in a white lab coat with parts clean enough to eat off. How wrong I was! In September 1973 I started working in the parts department and , except for a couple of years here and there, have remained a GM parts guy to this day.
I'm sure I still have the list of dates worked at the dealers but can't remember where. They have all been in the Toronto area except for the past 5 years.
Going from memory:
West York Chev-Olds 1973, Hearn Pont-Buick 1973-1974, Herron Chev-Olds 75-77, Foster Pont-Buick 77, Ross Wemp Chev-Olds 78-79, Belmont Chev-Olds 79-84, North York Chev-Olds 84, Student at Humber College 84-86, from there my memory of the dates is unclear. Other dealers I've worked at: Midtown Saturn-Saab-Isuzu, Old Mill Pont-Buick, Briarwood Chev-Olds, Dean Myers Chev-Olds and others. Variety is the spice of life. Now working at Bennett GM in Cambridge.
I don't have any key fobs from our dealership in sask (would love to find one) Started there as a full time partsman in the fall of 66, left Debden in 69 and came to Red Deer and after 4 yrs of doing "other things" went back into parts @ Kipp Scott Pontiac Buick GMC Cadillac Jan 15 1973 and still there.
Couple of memontos I have from Debden is the original Invoices we used back then and an ice scraper that a cousin found in a truck that he purchased about 10 years ago and he gave it to me, love those two.
