Scan of a postcard from this dealership. Still in business as of 1982.

That is a really great layout for a small location.  They seem to have had good volume, whether they were large or small.  Lots of Big 3 Big Cars down Trade-In Alley.

Questionable composition for a photo though. I think I would have shot from the opposite direction, across the showroom and down toward the big sign. Instead, most of the pic shows the side of the building, the building next door and used cars. I wanna see the new ones!

Yeah, I agree, the good shot would be over to the right.

I wonder if that was an AMC building design those years.  I have to look twice as it looks almost identical to Charlie Earehart, Inc here in Beckley.  That was how they look before Toyota had to redesign the building with the white and gray trim.
