I see no value in paying a premium for a dealership name if the car is nothing special.

Would you pay extra for a van from Yenko Chevrolet?

How about a Pinto from Tasca Ford?

What about a Monaco from MR. Norms's Grand Spaulding Dodge?

It makes no sense. I have a friend with a Baldwin-Motion Camaro bought from BM by an employee who added all the BM extras over the counter. The fact that Joel Rosen won't sign a letter attesting to its "pedigree" seriously lessens the value.The BM Protect-O-Plate is cool, but not a huge value adder.

In my opinion, no pot metal dealer tag adds anything unless the vehicle is specially modified.

BTW Dandy,
Dyno Don raced a Pinto you know... and I believe Bill Lawtons Pinto f/c was connected to Tasca as well!
