This thread is great. When I was a kid pumping gas, I used to check all the older cars dealer tags that would stop for gas. Since the gas station was right on the Trans Canada highway (east of Calgary) there were tons of non local dealer emblems to see. Wish I'd have know to snap pictures of them... Gotta love hindsight.

Scotia Chev-Olds was on Robie Street in Halifax when I was growing up. It was bought in the '80s by the O'Regans who now own several dealerships locally.
I'm not sure if Scotia Chev-Olds was in the same location in 1960, though... Are there any maritimers here who might know the answer to this?

Original dealer dealer name on my '75 Grand Am. I have an original hey chain as well. Royal Pontiac Buick Cadillac in West Vancouver. I have the original glovebox paperwork as well.
-- Edited by 76GLM on Tuesday 28th of September 2010 12:02:21 AM
That I wouldn't know. Royal was still in business when I bought the car in '89. Closed about a year or two later. The land was sold and condo's went up.

Hey 68sd,
Thanks for the info, do you know when Royal took over from Bill Conroy? My '75 Grand Am 4dr was bought new at McKay Pontiac Buick GMC in Calgary. Dealer still exist's as McKay today. I was able to get a couple of the dealer crest's just after I bought the car. The Sales Manager sent me a couple in the mail, the design hasn't changed from the mid seventies which is cool. Just a little thicker.
Right side up!! Just realized... This is my 1000th post.... Took long enough!!

This car is family owned since new, it was just passed on from father to son. It had been away in storage for ten years, so I was asked to get it started. It's a 62 Impala Sports Coupe, it has only 82,000 miles on the odometer! We were able to find the paper trail inside the car as well as alot of the purchasing paperwork! His Dad purchased the car at Regina Motor Products and was used as a daily driver as well the family holiday vehicle.
I'm looking for the emblem off the back of a Mander Car. My grandfather James Mander recently passed away, and I'm looking for some momento's for my sons to remember their Papa.
I'm not sure if your car still has one, or if your willing to part with one.
Thank you for your consideration.
