I just read all six pages of the Oldsmobile dealer list. Very interesting stuff. I had to laugh when I saw Weil Olds in Libertyville. I remember as a kid hearing their commercials on the radio about twenty times a day "It's a beautiful place in the country!"
My 70 Cutlass came from Jack Thompson Olds in Oak Lawn. I didn't realize they went out of business and the place demolished in 02. Anyone know why?

dealer codes
To TK-65 I will stand corrected on the dealer code for Gene Norris Olds/GMC
The rest of the information came from GMVIS/GMDEALERWORLD when I use to have the pass words! the info was all RPO codes and service records,
for a new car prep for delivery of a 2004 Alero GLS sedan with the collectos edition aka final 500. date of prep 04-05-04
To Kurt, I have the original window sticker for my 2004 Alero GLS coupe which was transfered to Crippen Olds/GMC for me to purchase new! I will try to call Crippen today to see If I can get there dealer code.
My scanner at home is down so I will have to sneek these into work to scan and should be able to produce this in black/white in a little while

Haven't seen this one: Dave Miller Olds, Matteson, IL. My Mother bought her 90 Cutlass Supreme there.
They also sold DeLoreans. That was a short-lived gig.
Also remember a JJ Wright Olds, but in Lansing, IL. I pulled out an old invoice for something I bought there, thought there might be a code on it, but not for parts slips I guess.
It does say on the top, and this is as of April of 86, Lansing, Chicago, Hammond.

Here's a few more from around here I haven't seen mentioned. Don't have any codes for them but if they show up in that list Lee found, here they are.
Pittsylvania Motor Company, Chatham VA (in business for one year, 1950)
Black Cadillac-Olds, Greensboro NC (the ones who ordered 50 Rallye 350s and sold all but about ten of them. They repainted those and stuck chrome bumpers on them to move them)
Stuart-Bowman Olds-Cadillac, Asheboro NC
Royal Oldsmobile, Winston-Salem NC (Royal had a pile of dealerships scattered all over. I know of them in W-S, Richmond VA and Lynchburg VA)
Highland Oldsmobile, High Point NC
Weddington Motors, White Lake NC
Sparks, Concord NC
There was also one in Western NC called Sparky's, but I cannot find any mention of it anywhere now.
Skyland Oldsmobile, Asheville NC
Moore Chev-Olds, Clarksville VA
Templeton Oldsmobile, Tysons Corner VA
Olmstead Oldsmobile, Arlington VA
Suttle Olds-Cad, Newport News VA
Christie Chev-Olds, West Point VA
**
The Service Guilds used to include photos of Training Center classes and included the tech's name and dealership. I'll look thru some of those and see what comes up. I know I've seen Overvold mentioned in there along with a bunch of California dealers.

documentation
Here is documentation of dealer codes and locations that were questioned on one my earlier replies, the first pic is of a copy of GMVIS I not sure if the site code on that is is the dealer code, it is the right amount of digits
I cannot upload one more pic of full on shot of my window sticker but as you can tell it has the VIN# and the EPA ratings state that is an Alero
From Spitzer would like to add that I found The address to Charlie Stuart Olds At 1510 N. Meridian st Indianapolis IN

Read all those community things Nowling supported, as did many old-line new car dealers. They knew the connections and goodwill would pay off in sales and service.
Find a new car dealer that supports its community like that now. None here do, though a few of the more established independent used-car dealers do.
Mega-dealers support their community? Yah right, esp since most aren't even owned by people in the communities they're in and really could not care less.

Also there is a number to the right of the dealer code on the window sticker starts with a letter then has numbers behind it. If i cross it over to the build sheet the number is under the (order) section. My SX was built in 8-69 and it starts with E00013, would this be the 13th car built? My 442 is K45910. My 442 was built 10-69. Wonder if this is what it means or? What does the letter mean? Hopefully some one can explain. Both cars were built at the Linden NJ plant.

You may have the first SX built! I can tell you this, there were 735 of them made in August '69.
And the the first W32s were made in Oct '69 and there were 7 of them.

If I understand you correctly, yes it was the 13th car! Please, I'd like to get a copy of your window sticker, build sheet, and body tag on your car. Please post or email me at wmachine@shubes.net.

I remember Jones as a Cadillac dealer, but they may have also sold Oldsmobile.
Far as I know Valley is still in business on Franklin Rd in Roanoke but I haven't been in that dealership in over 30 years. I don't know if anyone from 1970 is still there, but worth a call.
I called Massey Motor Co about my Hurst/Olds and not only did they remember the car well, I actually spoke with the salesman who sold the car new. Get this- they still had a pile of records for the car and they sent me everything they had, including a new Massey Motor Company trunk badge, identical to the one on the car.
Hey- worth a try. All it would cost is a phone call and a few minutes.
