Yes, Moomaw Chevy is still open. It has been there for a very long time. It is a cool little dealership in a small town. My Father In Law bought his first new car there, a 1960 Chevy convertible. The owner of the dealership, Mr. Moomaw, was talking to Steve and I during the car show.. He is a real nice guy. He is also the salesman that my Father In Law bought his car from. My father In Law was also at this show, but not with that car..

An Americana setting if ever there was on.
Do you have any old interior/exterior pictures of the dealership taken within the last 40-50 years?
How about any older showroom display items packed away in their attic/basement?

No, unfortunately I do not have any photos of the inside of the dealership. You can also bet that Big Steve and I checked with the owner about any old Chevy displays or stuff that might be laying around . Unfortunately that stuff is gone per the owner . There are a couple of cool, older signs that are hanging on the walls in the parts/service area, but those are staying with the dealership.

I do have some dealership memorabilia items from there such as snow scrapers, ball cap, front dealer plates and an old plate frame. I even checked with the parts manager about any older items that might be laying around in the attic and he stated that they got rid of a lot of stuff several years back...

You've got the '1' indicating one ext moulding - with 'B' code for upper paint, it has to be drip rail!!

Another 731 car, tough interior to restore

What's the small rubbery plug in the wire harness right behind the booster tang?

Marlin, the rubbery plug behind the booster tang is my fusible link for the underhood light. I have it wired so I can remove the fuse which lies in that boot and makes the link/connection. This is obviously so the underhood light does not come on every time I open the hood and kill my battery... I kind of have it "stashed" behind the power booster to conceal it somewhat.. It is cool when you are at a summer nite show and you plug in the underhood light and it reflects on the chrome of the valve covers and air cleaner!! The underhood light was an option I added to the car as well as the windshield washer monitor light... All part of the aux. lighting package which is neat!!
