Old dealership photos

[IPOGT]

So, I have a friend whose family owned a Ford dealership from the 1920’s until 1969. The dealership was Pletcher Ford aka “Fordtown”of Jenkintown, PA. Here is a few pics from the Mustang launch at the shop from 1964-5. Notice the cowboy girl. Look at the Shelby Cobras in the showroom! Many! In the front is a GT350. Thought these would be cool to post.

Very cool. That first photo is throwing me off. If they are outside why is the writing facing the other way.

The people inside already know they're open.

Yeah it doesn't match any of the others at all.

For the price of the Mach 1 today you could have 19 Torino's.

I remember Baldwin. They stuck the 427 in just about everything. Everyone I knew wanted one.
