Former Dodge / Chrysler / et al. Dealerships

[LH23H2R]

I'm trying to locate the names and locations of former Dodge , et al. , dealerships , with a focus on the southern California area .

I know that Glenn E. Thomas is still in business ( albeit at a newer location ) as is Moss Dodge ( Riverside , Ca. ) , and I think Dominic Basso Plymouth ( formerly on Broadway @ Academy in L.A. ) .

I've found where Earl Ike Dodge was located ( in Inglewood near LAX ) , and I know where Atlantic Dodge ( later , East L.A. Dodge ) was ; can anyone provide a list -- even a short one -- of former DCPD dealerships ?

Thanks :happy1:

My Scamp was sold from Gas Periat Jnr's San Mateo Chry-Ply, according to the licence plate surround... Does that help?

That triggered a memory brain cell to fire! A quick web search found there was a Harger-Haldeman Chrysler-Plymouth-Imperial dealership at 2100 S. Figueroa St. in downtown Los Angeles starting in the '40s. I remember TV commercials for them back in the '60s. I don't know how long they were around.
