        That is one GREAT looking Dealership, I have their License plate frames but never saw the Dealership, It's in Escondido in the South, Southern Calif. area. Thanks Keoni! [^]

        Looks like Barney had some connection to Chryslers and Desotos! [:0]

        I see maybe four models fairly new in 1957 when this was taken!

        Could be a coincidence I guess, as Mopar owners are closer to Independent car owners than anything else out there and may have traded some in and or brought them in for Service.

          I absolutely adore pictures from the 50s and 60s- Roadside, motels, shopping plazas, and especially car lots[^] I went to his site but had to get off quick- I'd never stop[:X]

          Thanks for sharing that!!

            AWESOME!!!!!

            Keoni, thank you SO MUCH! I've been trying to track down something like this for a couple of years now! This makes my day

            Rich, that area of Escondido was once Auto Row. On the other side of the showroom was a Ford dealer who started in Escondido in 1928 (and who is still there). All these places are now long gone... just a bunch of boring bank buildings [V]

              Cool beans, Keoni. I love 'em, too. Thanks for the post and link. [8D]BP
              We've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.
