By the way, I am new here and love the board! Have been collecting dealer emblems for quite some time, but haven't seen too many from Canadian dealers. The die-castings must have dissolved after a few winters!

I actually found it on Ebay a while ago, just got lucky. It's mint...guy removed it in the late 1970s from a 69 Nova. About the only thing I'd consider trading it for is an original emblem from Jim Chumbley Chevrolet in Ypsilanti, MI. My COPO Chevelle was sold new there.

You don't want to know how many Central emblems I saw in the auto wreckers in London in the 80's...

Yes, that is Addisons, bought my 92 Bonneville there. It is no longer there, made way for downtown Condos.

Here is the dealer nameplate on the trunk of my Olds Eighty-Eight, it was a big Toronto dealer too, was being the key word.

Could that be a Mann Motors decal underneath this one? (as posted above)

The shape at the bottom looks similar...

Would you be willing to sell the Central Chev emblem? My dad used to work there as a mechanic.

Hey Ken, that Jenner emblem is of interest to me. My 427 car was sold at Jenner , you didn't happen to grab it ?

Just an FYI, I sent an email to Fred Jenner of Jenner Motors on Vancouver Island whose family used to own Jenner Motors in Edmonton asking..."if by any chance you might have access to any of the old Jenner Motors dealer plates? Any guidance would certainly be appreciated."

His reply was: "We used to have a bunch of the old Jenner plates years ago, but we have since given them all away to others making the same request. And we havent come across anyone else that has a secret stash somewhere. Sorry, Fred Jenner."
