A few years back, my Dad and I went to Pennsylvania for an antique motorcycle show. We passed by this dealership and stopped so I could take pics. Sadly, the dealership was sold and this location is now empty . The small town appearance is what drew me to take the pics. And how I would love to have those dealer signs!

Harry Sommers Chrysler Plymouth in Atlanta, Georgia. The Plymouth showroom became "Sommers Marine" in the early 60s. I worked there after school as a helper in 1964. They sold a lot of High Performance cars. I even got to drive a Chrysler Turbine from the service floor to the service dept at 5mph. ☹☹☹

Wade Ford was next door and Boomershine Pontiac was across the street.
