There sure used to be a lot of local family owned dealerships 50-60 years go. When l worked in dealerships between 1975 to 1980, in the west San Gabriel Valley in SoCal, nearly every suburb had a dealership. From the early '60's, I remember Jack Wall Chevrolet,C.S.Mead,Service Chevrolet in Pasadena,Jack Head Chevrolet and Economy Chevrolet in Alhambra,(Jack Head reportedly sold 2 ZL-1 69 Camaros),Mission Chevolet in San Gabriel,Lindy Chevrolet in Arcadia,Hal Greene in Monrovia,later to become Price Chevrolet, Clippinger Chevrolet in Covina,Colleiu Chevrolet in South Pasadena,Arrow Chevrolet in East LA, Ostrom Chevrolet in Montebello,Dorweiler Chevrolet in El Monte,Grand Chevrolet in Glendora,Leo Hoffman Chevrolet in La Puente,and there were probably more.All these dealerships are gone now. I was sure glad I got out when I did. I think Felix Chevrolet on Figueroa St. down by USC is the lone survivor. There may be a few more that I forgot about.I only worked at four of them.
