In fact, their history goes back some more. From the late Forties I get this: FALLS CHURCH GARAGE DeSoto, Plymouth Sales & Service Lee Hwy. & Hillwood Ave. Falls Church FA 2300 There's also something about the history of the site before it became a dealership (page 3-8). Update 1: Washington...

Going by the 1986 Dealer Directory the dealer code was 38923 (first line): The dealer code 38923 being within the range 35000 - 39999 the original dealership must have been a DeSoto-Plymouth dealer. It probably was one of those dealerships that in the early Sixties got a Chrysler-Plymouth...

Now NASA should make itself heard by Voyager 2.

Copied from another thread: The format of the broadcast sheet changed considerably between 1976 and 1977. Up to and including 1976, the slots for the sales codes mostly carried a label indicating the general or specific meaning for the code supposed to go into that slot. From 1977 on, there...

Way back I once noticed the inclusion of sales code B41 "Power Brakes - Front Disc, Rear Drum" on a fender tag belonging to a 1974 Newark-assembled Fury. Normally that sales code was not used on 1974-1978 C-body fender tags. Here it is: Now a second one with that code has popped up: Also...

The filament structure formed by visible matter is especially fascinating because it is the largest structure in the universe that can somewhow be imagined and visualized according to our brain's understanding. Visualizing the area (if you can call it an area, that is) where the universe is...

The terminology varies somewhat from agency to agency and manufacturer to manufacturer, but a "cruiser" would be for driving around your favorire residential neighborhood. Cars like "interceptors" or "pursuits" would be destined for highway duties. With a 440 engine, your car would be in the...

Some comments on @Sport Fury 67's decodings (nothing serious, just nailing it down): M38 - Deck Lid ? > Deck Orn/Treatment H44 - ? > M44 = Hood Ctr Mldg & Orna N41 - Dual Exhaust w/o Exhaust tips N51 - Max Engine Cooling CTD- ? > CONTINUED F33 - LH spot light F58 - RR reinforced weld G11 -...

You can put together several criteria, but they should be verifiable. Verifying can be done by looking at the - VIN - fender tag - broadcast sheet (Ordered in rising number of possible combinations.) So that's the first choice we have to make.

Yeah, every one of us, and of them too!

A little quirk in the fender tag coding of 1974 Imperials with the Crown Coupe package emerged in the "I finally bought an Imperial" thread. In 1974, the Vehicle Order Number (VON) for Crown Coupes would start with a J, which according to MMC Detroit LLC meant "Special Order/Paint": In 1975...

Maybe this is a new lead for understanding special sales code P39. The consensus was that it must have to do with the power window set-up. For this 1976 ex North Carolina Highway Patrol Gran Fury we now have the fender tag sporting that code and a picture of the rear door exposing the metal...

I do not quite understand the question but for the 1967 model year there was a Thurow Motor Sales active in Wilson WI. As Chrysler-only dealerships were extremely rare, there is a fair chance that it was actually a Chrysler-Plymouth dealership. They were still in business by March 20, 1968. A...

Think of it in size classes. Those were traditionally related to the wheelbase. Largest wheelbase = fullsize class= C-Body Intermediate wheelbase = intermediate class = B-Body Smallest wheelbase = compact class = A-Body Chrysler was constantly shifting nameplates from the larger class to the...

Yes, accessing the site from within an incognito window works fine. Still seems like a work-around to me, because an incognito window, besides managing the cookie registry in a special way, disables some other functionalities as well. I'm shurely not going to wipe the cookie registry attached to...

I get a dialogue to consent to cookies on every single page I open on the site. Once for the whole site should be enough, I'd say. I get this behaviour with Apple OS+Safari and Windows+Firefox. Also happens when I open the same page several times during one single session.

Wrong module! It should say: "Pull up nose in one-thousand feet..."

I get so irritated when the GPS voice is telling me things I already know that I have no energy left to pay attention to an info that I didn't know. For big cities, I stick to maps. A good look and I usually know what I need to do to get to my destination. In case of doubt along the way, just...

Alley's Plymouth Center, Inc., Kingsport, TN, opened in January 1960 as a branch of Alley Motor Co., Church Hill, TN, a DeSoto-Plymouth dealer. It didn't take much more than a year to give up the Plymouth-only status and add the Chrysler and Imperial lines to their franchise. By 1962 they moved...

I get to go on a short business trip, so no updates from me this week!
