You would think that the dealership would at least keep them clean to help sell them.  I think the building behind the cars would tell a potential customer that they did not want to buy a car from that dealership.

@carsman1958 Well it looks like the dealership has three interested Chevy customers, or maybe they're lonely salesmen.

@jack-dodds Jack, I think they are the lonely sales people, that have no clue as to why they have no customers.

I think this dealership was located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Great image.

The key clue to location was the Canadian Army and Navy Association office next door.

@david-green Interesting!  Is it the Army and Navy Vets sign and the surrounding building designs that prompt your opinion David?

Interesting picture Galen as yours' always are. The combined horsepower of these nine cars wouldn't come close to that of one of today's Corvettes.

@jack-dodds   Also, the 'Limited' after the company's name, which indicates one of the 'Empire's colonies.

@grockwood I kind of think there are a few Model T's in that bunch.

Jack your right. I just noticed one of the Chevys is a hard top.
