Donna,
Is that Lutz or Lautze Ford?
The reason I ask is that I just posted a pic of Lautze Ford in that gallery I created with old Ford Dealership pics. Don't know where I found it but I figured I'd add it to the list.
Here is the gallery:

Lautze Ford is the dealer stamp on most of the CS brochures Dodgerbill sells on eBay. Mine has a stamp from there.

I'm sure you won't - but if you come across anything from S&M Ford in Socorro, New Mexico I'll take it!!


And no I didn't make up that name - it's legit!! :rolleyes:



^^^How did you know I started laughing when I read that Rich?^^^:grin:

I saw the name in another thread as LUTZ...maybe he was wrong and meant LAUTZE? I'll look for both spellings, as well as the S&M for you.....snicker snicker.

~~~~D.D.

I knew you wouldn't let me down :wink:
I think I added the fact that is was legit just for you.

I know it's pretty remote but, has anyone ever seen any frames from "Gearhart Ford Sales", Mount Vernon, WA.

No but I thought I found the obituary for the owner for you ... then realized that Ritzville, WA is almost a 5 hours drive from Mount Vernon, WA

LAWRENCE BENZEL
RITZVILLE, WASH.
Visitation for Lawrence W. Benzel, 85, will be today and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Danekas Funeral Home...

Mr. Benzel married Alma Ils in 1945 and began working for Gearhart Ford Sales in Ritzville.
In 1953, he purchased the dealership, and Benzel Ford Sales was formed.
He was involved in his church, Lions Club and the American Legion.
He supported numerous community projects and was a Ritzville booster. After closing Benzel Ford in 1983, he supported numerous community projects, especially sustaining the Legion Building. He also provided assistance at Danekas Funeral Home.

Although...


There was a Gearhart Ford-Subaru in Burlington, WA which is less than 10 miles from Mount Vernon. The address now though is for a new name. Skagit Ford-Subaru which says they've been there since 1987. Odd that Gearhart would come up on an auto parts search site and been out of business for almost 20 years. That would have been pre-internet search capability type of stuff. Could just have been old listings used in the search http://www.skagitfordsubaru.com/en_US/

Worth a shot though to inquire.
