Mine was from Leo Jarnagin Pontiac in Fort Worth. It had the dealer tag on it when I bought it in 1991, but I removed it when I repainted the car in '93. I've lost track of what happened to the tag, but it's around somewhere at my dad's. It had a yellow bee with the tagline "Honey of a deal". The dealership is long gone. Last I checked there was a Borders in it's place, but I'm sure that's gone now.
I bought the car in Denton which was only a few miles from Ft. Worth. I always thought it was cool that my car was built in Arlington, sold in Ft. Worth lived it's life in a 50 mile radius until I brought it with me out to California.
I believe McDavid is still around and sells Hondas and Acuras. Not sure of the difference between Bill and David, but I remember David McDavid from when I was a kid. They had a ton of commercial in the '70s and '80s featuring the dog "Wide Track" who I think was a great dane. They used to finish the commercials with the pitchman saying "Right, Wide Track?" and the dog would bark.
I grew up in the DFW area and would drive by the dealership on occasion. Their dealership sign and tags were pretty memorable to me. I see the tags on occasion out here in California.
