Congratulations! And a big thank you. I've enjoyed your 'posts' describing the progress on this car, and I definitely like what you've done to it. To me, this one really defines the hobby.

Again, thanks for all the comments guys.

I've since found out more about my "Davies" dealership. According to VVS, it turns out it was Davies in some way, that became Pine View in the early 70's, and is now Pine View Hyundai on highway 7 just west of the 400.

Pine view wasn't constructed until 70, so I'm still not sure of the Davies thing. And it's bugging me.

 

Anyone have a Davies dealer emblem for sale?

 Was that dealer connected to Al Palladini ?

He had a dealer up that way called Pine something ?
