Dealership Photos
A new book is currently being written called, "Lost Muscle Car Dealerships". The focus of the book, much like Lost Road Courses and Lost Drag Strips I/II, will be to feature some of the dealerships from the muscle car era that committed heavily to selling these cars. By no means is this a complete list. If the book sells well we'll certainly take a look at adding a second volume. If you would like to contribute feel free to PM me or post below. I anticipate there will be a lot of "how come your not covering XXXXX?" Again, if the book sells well we would love to do a follow up. We can't use any old photo you find off the net. The rights would have to be yours.
We're looking for the following; Dealership shots of the exterior, interior and sales lots Race cars that ran with dealer sponsorship Performance cars that sold new through these dealerships Marketing tools (pamphlets, brochures, advertisements, merchandise, etc..) The following are dealerships that will receive coverage; Anderson Motors Co. Yenko Chevrolet Dale Chevrolet Nickey Chevrolet Paul Harvey Ford White Bear Dodge Grand Spaulding Dodge Fenner-Tubbs Chrysler Plymouth Berger Chevrolet Royal Pontiac Packer Pontiac Berejik Oldsmobile Chesrown Oldsmobile Reynolds Buick GMC Mel Burns Ford Bob Ford Inc. Tom Coward Lincoln Mercury Sach's and Sons Lincoln Mercury Yeakel Chrysler Plymouth Melrose Motors Inc. Scunio Chevrolet Richard Rambler Randall Rambler AMC Cordia Chevrolet Thanks!

Don't forget about Alan Green Chevrolet in Burien, WA (Seattle area). They were heavy into racing in early '60's, i.e. Z-11, Z-06, etc.

Colonial Chevrolet in Norfolk VA. Largest Yenko network dealer. I own these photos.
..and i agree with those who say adding pics to posts on this site is way more involved of a process than it needs to be.

The book is really coming together. I just received over 50 photos of White Bear Dodge from the 60's and early 70's. Some amazing, never before seen imagery.
We're also looking to feature some supercars. If you have one that was sold through Hi Po dealer and it hasn't been seen in a book before please PM me. |
