Transplant your pix of the PMD HQ and Engineering Bldg (895 Joslyn) to this page and how about any other NON-CAR pix that tell the history of Pontiac Motors. (how about the different renditions of Chief Pontiac in paper, steel, brass and chrome plated pot metal?) Thanks Citydesk175

Here is a pic of a Salta Pontiac from Keith Seymore's "64 Pontiac display pic -too cool" thread in the Lobby. I'm assuming this is the same dealer.

Good idea. I went back and picked out a few more from that thread:
If you look down the street you'll see AE England Pontiac, which is where OMT bought his '64 GTO:

Keith, Maybe this is a little off subject, but the Royal/Fresard photos bring back some memories. I bought my 64 Corvette conv from the Fresard used car lot in March 1986. I still have it! I saw it advertised in Sunday Detroit News & went out to the used car lot to see the Vette. It was Sunday & they were closed & the Vette was nowhere in sight, then I looked through the overhead garage door in the building in your picture. The Vette was setting inside the garage stall. I returned on Monday & eventually closed the deal.

This is where my '63 Bonneville was purchased new. Woodson Pontiac, Roanoke VA.
Anyone else have a car from this dealership?
