Dan Groman brings vintage Chevy driving tour to Bluffton

Owners and their vehicles will gather here on Saturday, June 20
Posted by Fred Steiner on June 11, 2020 - 3:31pm

You know what they say: See the U.S.A. in your Chevrolet.

And, anyone who know Dan Groman easily associates him with a beautiful 1954 Chevrolet 210. It's a Bluffton original – once owned by Mrs. C. Henry Smith and later by Zoe Hauenstein.

Groman informs the Icon that the Vintage Chevrolet Club of America has official formed a local Region in the Lima area – it’s called the Western Buckeye Region – to allow area VCCA members from northwestern Ohio to meet with others that enjoy Chevrolets of all eras.
