Ed - the pictures seemed to have dropped off. Could you post a pic so I can see which car you are referring to?

BTW - I agree with Mike's assessment: 307-992 (Pontiac Zone - dealer stock - for storage); Pontiac Engineering is 35-997 (where the Super Duty cars were shipped).

I'm not aware of any vintage shots, but will keep my eyes open.

One of the things you might try is to google the address and see if the building is still there/still in use.

I did this for the dealership where my Grand Prix was delivered (Stevenson Pontiac, Ludington MI) and the building is still there, in use as a antique/flea market.

I did do that but the Dealership is long gone. But I have contacted the Histoical soc. in that city where it was. But I think I found the 4th generation of the dealership and awaiting an answer it they have any photos they will share.

Try Googling the word storm mixed w/ &quot;Peterson Motors&quot; or &quot;Peterson Pontiac&quot; in quotes as it results in lots o' hits that may be worth digging into including old newspapers etc..

Zone 14, Dealer 519, Peterson Motors. I have now found the son of that Pontiac dealer it was in Storm Lake Iowa. The son e-mailed me some pictures. As far as I know that dealer has never been exposed. But I have verified that it is true to be.It has been gone since the mid 80's. His dad started it in or around mid 40's

If you still have this car , or mainly just still have a copy of the PHS Invoice you were speaking of --- i can probably tell you more about it than anyone else can.

It should be a multi-invoice car. But PHS doesn't always have all the copies on file for every multi-invoice car. They also don't automatically include or search out for multiple invoices in every case.

Please post a copy of the Invoice - or send me a PM .
Will also need body build week from trim tag.

Scrutinizing invoices is one of my hobbies
Constantly gaining more info and data and knowledge.

The PHS says that the car was delivered to Pontiac Motor Division and not a specific dealer. I'm hoping that it's a Brass Hat car. What do you guys think?
Always one of the possibilities in these situations.

BVZ -

Sadly, Ed passed away a couple years ago (June 2013). I was kind of watching for an estate sale or to see one of his cars come up for auction but never did see any activity in that regard, so I don't know where the information ended up.

However - if you would like to extrapolate here (or elsewhere) there are several of us always willing to learn something new.

So sorry to hear of the good fellow passing away.
I read some of his other posts about a Blue Angel Corvette.
My apologies and condolences to all that knew him.

He had posted 3 images from P-bucket that are no longer valid.
I was supposing maybe 1 of them was his invoice ?

Did anyone perhaps grab a right-click save of his invoice ?

Can't do much without a copy , and his trim tag date.
Was also going to send him back to PHS to check files for additional invoice(s).

Thanks Keith
