RE: Abrahamson Motor Sales Inc. Hammond, In. Anybody in the Chicago area?

[<mcwheels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Great find Ricky, I find it really interresting to try and dig up information on the history of our cars. You're lucky yours still has the pot metal dealership emblem on it. My mission is to find one for Abrahamson Motors to fill those 3 holes on the back of my Chrysler. My 68 Dart GTS had the original owneres manual in the glove box (did anybody really ever keep gloves in those lol) Anyway it not only listed the original owners name but the delivery date and the name of the dealership in Sacramento. Seems to be another out of bussiness dealership from what I could find out.
