It was a nice day yesterday so I decided to do a little now and then photo. The building looks to be abandoned and probably has been for quite some time. What surprised me was how small the building was in comparison to the dealer mega centers of today. Its just a cool little piece of car nostalgia. Amazing that this little store was responsible for some of the factory monsters that are still unbelievably collectable to this day.
Been to see this collection several times. This is the Yenko prototype.
That is awesome! If i ever make it to Nashville, I will definitely be checking that out. That gold color is really pretty

Good catch! I wonder if at one point there was a dual spelling or something?
Over all it was a cool little trip. My father was shocked the building was still there as that back in the day time frame was his wheelhouse. I am an 80s child lol - but I have a sentimental love for all 69 Camaros as my father had one. Thanks for the comments everyone!
Yenko and Motion cars were getting popular. We'd even heard of them in South Texas. I was in high school at that point and was way too poor to afford one of those cars. Thanks for the pics.
Wonder if that vertical sign was an accident or an attention getter? How many people might have wandered in to tell someone about the sign and ended up becoming a customer?
