Vintage Mopar Dealership Pictures

-
This is a great thread! Thanks to everyone that posted pics. The pic of the 61 Dart is especially cool. Funny they show the 61 covered with money. I've heard even back in the day those were considered the ugliest of the forward look cars.
 
I remember when I was a kid they had the Performance Clinic here. I was too young to go, my dad had something to do that day. I really like all these old photos, thanks for everyone who posted!

This dealer was in a little town in tidewater Va, Poqouson, they moved to Hampton Va I guess in the 60's.

Here is a Dealer Tag or emblem I just bought, brings back a lot of memories! My Dad was looking at a 70 Superbird on the used car lot, 1700 dollars in 1974. He bought a 74 New Yorker Brougham instead. Dang it!

The Dodge Brothers and the Dodge were very popular cars in the gold rush town of Placerville, California because it was more powerful and dependable than a Model T. At first the Dodge Bros. dealer was located on the south side of Main Street in the Shafsky Building (still standing), but later moved across the street to the north side of Main Street.

Does anyone have pictures of Marion Burnside Chrysler Plymouth that was located in Columbia S.C.? I found this is where my Duster was sold new...

I looked up Marion Burnside Chrysler Plymouth on Google earth... This is the dealership shortly before it was torn down. It was a Chrysler dealership in the 60's and 70's then switched to GM in the eighties. Not sure if it was under different ownership when they switched. You can clearly see the 1960's styling to the building.

I also found that Marion Burnside was a local sponsor of Richard Petty and he made several appearances there!http://stockcar.racersreunion.com/ph...context=latest

Here is a link to an article about a new Super Bird sold to Petty Enterprises from Marion Burnside Chrysler Plymouth. http://www.hemmings.com/mus/stories/..._feature2.html

"Owner Al Pokrzywa, now retired and living in Texas City, Texas, found this particular car in pieces in the late Nineties (see Owner's View). "As near as I can piece together from conversations with previous owners and the paperwork I got, an employee at Petty Enterprises bought this car new," Al told us.
This B5 Blue Fire Metallic/automatic/white bucket seat interior model was delivered to Marion Burnside Chrysler-Plymouth in Columbia, South Carolina, some 150 miles away from Petty's Level Cross, North Carolina, headquarters. Not long after, title changed from the original owner to Petty Enterprises. Whether it was used for parts, or whether it was something that King Richard himself used to get around town for a spell, who can say."
