For years, I've known that my 1958 Plymouth was sold at Venanzio Motors in Windber, PA.That info was furnished by Chrysler Historical when I ordered my build sheet. But I couldn't find any additional information about this dealership, except it was very small and likely only sold about ten cars a year. Yesterday there was a major breakthrough. I contacted a guy that moderated a western PA car dealership group on facebook and asked him to see what he could come up with. Thirty minutes later, he came up with a small ad in a yearbook for one of the local high schools. This ad contained an address for the dealership ! So plugging that into google streetview yielded the picture that you see below. You'll notice that there are vintage hubcaps that line the drive thru area.
