I would bet that Ron Wade got permission from Chevrolet (General Motors) long ago, if he even needed it, to use "Chevs" in the name of his company. When he started "Chevs of the 40's", I talked to him often and he struck me as a person that was egar to have everything right as he gathered all of the necessary information to start his company.
As far as Bowtie Bits, that is a bit of a stretch for Chevrolet to squawk. I don't remember ever seeing the word "bowtie" used for marketing by Chevrolet or General Motors.
Just my thoughts.
