We were tipped off to this very cool gallery on Flickr.com of old Ford and Mercury dealerships. We dig stuff like this because it is as much about the cars as it is about the small cities and towns where these dealers were located. Everything about this find is awesome.
There is near total uniformity among the ever shrinking number of car dealers in the US now. Outside of a rare few places that operate out of their original buildings, most dealers are laid out on similar floor plans in rather bland looking buildings. You’ll see nothing bland about these places pictured in the gallery. No two are alike, and that’s a great thing in our book.
Hit the link below and set this baby on slide show to see more than 100 photos of cool cars and car dealerships. Pay special attention to stuff like tow trucks and other background items that may tickle your gearhead fancy.
Thanks to Jack Pereira for the tip!
