Transplant your pix of the PMD HQ and Engineering Bldg (895 Joslyn) to this page and how about any other NON-CAR pix that tell the history of Pontiac Motors. (how about the different renditions of Chief Pontiac in paper, steel, brass and chrome plated pot metal?) Thanks Citydesk175

Keith, Maybe this is a little off subject, but the Royal/Fresard photos bring back some memories. I bought my 64 Corvette conv from the Fresard used car lot in March 1986. I still have it! I saw it advertised in Sunday Detroit News & went out to the used car lot to see the Vette. It was Sunday & they were closed & the Vette was nowhere in sight, then I looked through the overhead garage door in the building in your picture. The Vette was setting inside the garage stall. I returned on Monday & eventually closed the deal.

Here is a pic of a Salta Pontiac from Keith Seymore's "64 Pontiac display pic -too cool" thread in the Lobby. I'm assuming this is the same dealer.

Good idea. I went back and picked out a few more from that thread:
If you look down the street you'll see AE England Pontiac, which is where OMT bought his '64 GTO:

I believe this dealer is in Oak Lawn Illinois at about 93rd St. and Cicero. This building is still there and is now called Haggerty Pontiac GMC Buick (soon to be just GMC Buick).
