With a name like mine, I always get a lot of interesting responses, with either my first of last name. The first, is known to be a females and the last is known more for it's social class (in a negative) then the value of the work and history of how it became a social class in the first place. the cool thing is, both are connected to the Auto World, and one specifically to my Wagons' name. Bourgeois is in fact, Acadian on Canadian Soil, in detail, one of the first to land and make it their home. Dating back to the 16 hundreds, a very dynamic history in the names creation and the variables that came after. Below are a few of the sites with detailed history and information.

Dana Chevrolet
Owner Peyton Cramer and manager Dick Guldstrand of Dana Chevrolet were very involved on the racing scene in Southern California. As racers, they saw the need for special built high performance cars. Thus came the "Dana" cars. Dana cars can usually be identified by their distinctive dual scoop fiberglass hood. Other options available included 427 engines, headers, open element air cleaner, suspension and ignition upgrades, and about anything else the customer would want. Most of the Dana cars were '67 and '68 Camaros, with a few '69 Danas known to exist. If you raced in Southern California and saw a car with a chrome plated Dana emblem, you knew not to mess with this machine--unless you too were in a Dana! The dealer was located in 9735 Long Beach Blvd. South Gate, CA.
Other Dana connections. My very own Rear End!
The icons that make it all to great.
