Coleman Young Motors Willoughby OH

[JimCoronette]

I just got my build (IBM) card from FCA Historical.

It said that my car was sold new at Coleman Young Motors in Willoughby OH, north of Cleveland.

Does anyone have any info about this dealership?

I found newspaper ads from 1967, hoping to find my car in an ad.

Any other info/pictures would be greatly appreciated!

Well, the address for the old dealership was 38046 second street. I did a screen grab from google earth and what it looks like currently. Its the building on the right. I assume the parking lot would have been the sales lot back in the day.

I wonder if that dealership had any connection with Coleman Young, the mayor of Detroit from 1974-1994.

I'm guessing no since:

1 The name is hyphenated in the searches that I've done.
2 Coleman doesn't seem to have any connection with Willoughby OH.
3 The dealership was around before he became mayor.

Interesting coincidence I'm guessing.
