Was there a list of dodge dealers in Virginia around the Seven corners, Culpepper, Manassas area. I have an old photo of my car from the mid 80's (rear shot) but I cannot make out the nameplate. Supposedly the car was raced at Old Dominion around the late 70's early 80's. The car is a 1970 Super Bee FJ5 with a black painted roof. Any leads would be appreciated. Can anyone make out the dealer nameplate????

Thanks,

Jeff

I believe it is. Where are those pics from? Timeline? Do you know the VIN to that car?

there are 60+ miles between Culpepper & Seven Corners and likely dozens of small town dealerships during the muscle car era

2 words ** first letter looks like an "A" scope can you scan or post a higher quality pic of just the dealer sticker section?

Culpepper:
WLS MOTORS
O R WEAVER MOTORS

Manassas:
DON NEWMAN DODGE
GUNNING MOTORS
MANASSAS DODGE

there is an ADAMS MOTOR CO but it's ~175 miles away in Lynchburg, VA

Dan, You never cease to amaze me with the amount of help/info you provide!!!!! Thank you so much, keep it coming.

I reached out to the previous owner who provided me that pic for a zoomed in one, hopefully I can get one.

I love researching the history!

Merry Christmas.

Jeff

I have a number dealer lists, some with more info than others - I do have:

Young Motors Inc
707 Williams Street
Fredericksburg VA 22401
dealer # 08405

that's an early dealer #, from what I've seen they would've been a dealership since the '40s - they appear to be gone by 1988

Maybe I'm missing something here but it looks like 2 entirely different tail panels on the same car... shruggy

One pic shows the dealer badge and what I assume to be a Bee...

The other tail panel has neither of those... work

Maybe I'm just lost... shruggy


...FAFO...

the earlier pic has the Bee emblem, the dealer decal and a good sized "DENT" above the "D" in DODGE

the later pic has a replaced panel in better condition w/o the BEE & dealer decal - SAME SUPER BEE

I remember this car from when it was in Baltimore, (1997) I was looking for something to hotrod so I passed(stupidly) on it. When I saw it, it was minus engine, but came with rechromed front bumpers. I went back for a second look later on, but it had already gone to Maine. IIRC the guy in Baltimore changed the tail panel for a nicer one, he may still have it, he's quite the hoarder.....sorry, collector.
