My brother inlaw won a car yesterday at Marty Feldman Chevrolet. The lucky guy received a coupon in the mail for $1500.00 off a new purchase and attached to it was a key with a statement saying "Come in and try to open the door to a new car and win it". His key unlocked the door, a one in 15,000 chance he was told. So, if you ever get one of these mailers don't just through it away, go in and try it. |

I loved that Marty Feldman fellow in Young Frankenstein but I didn't know he had a car dealership, too.

Qweek, not Igor, Eyegor...lol Favorite part of the movie, is when he is on the roof playing his Conn 8d French horn (naturally, I'm a hornist)... |

My parents bought a car from them a long time ago and I always chuckled at the name too. Last night, on AMC they were running Young Frankenstein (or is that Young Franken-Shteen?) as well. It's always been one of my favorite movies of all time too. Gene Wilder's over the top, Peter Boyle was amazing, I still can't believe that's Gene Hackman, Teri Garr's adorable, Cloris Leachman (queue up the horses) as Frau Blucher was classic, and of course Marty Feldman made that movie. |

I believe Marty is retired. His daughter runs that dealership, I believe. His son Jay Feldman owns Jay Chevrolet in Highland. Nice people. My father used to work with them when he was at Chevrolet. Glad to hear someone won. A Cobalt is better than an Aveo! James |

If he only has one daughter, I worked with her at the Gramophone many, many years ago...she was a very sweet and charming young lady, with the most distinctive voice. Sharp as a tack, too, I wouldn't be surprised if she was running the business. |
