I graduated from high school in 1962.
Stumbling around for a job I had a friend that called me about one at one of the local Chevy stores.
After working there while going to college it came time for the new cars to come out.
Being a lowly grunt my job was to help put the brown butcher paper on the windows of the dealership. We covered EVERY window!
Next we headed to a coliseum where the all the surrounding Chevy stores would receive the cars. Chevrolet and the dealers had made arrangements for all the dealers to get their cars at the same time.
The transports came after dark and unloaded. Our make ready guys had driven over with their hammers and punches to make the holes for the dealer nameplates and put in the floor mats, hub caps, etc.
Being the grunt, I did a lot of the mats, paper stuff, etc.
We were not allowed by the Chevrolet rep to remove any car until after midnight.
At about the stroke of 12, groups of us would drive the cars to the dealership pulling all of them into the service Dept. All with no license plates, insurance and not much gas!
We parked them everywhere, but all had to be inside.
Next we loaded in a van and went back for more. This went on for hours!!
What was fun, my friends knew where I was and I would sneak them in to see what’s new. It was interesting to see customers following us to the store at 2am!!
Great Times, Great Fun!
