Snapped a pic in front of my cars' Original Dealership today

I found & spoke to the original owner of my car about 4 years ago, and he told me where he bought the car new- just a few miles from here.( The dealership moved & merged w/ Cadillac in the mid 70's)


I found the 1969 pic below a couple years back, and was able to figure out which building (still there) was the original dealership.



I've been meaning to stop by with my car & snap a pic for a long time. Today finally became the day. The building is empty and the lot chained or I would have gotten closer. Still kinda cool though.

Period pic taken in 1969:

And today w/ my car:
