Dana Chevrolet

Couple of questions.

#1 - What are the words on the door directly to the right of the 1 and also below the Bowtie on left side quarter panel? When ya zoom in, it gets JUST TOO blurry to read.

#2 - Where is this ad located? Online archive? In a magazine... Life, Car Craft, Hot Rod, or maybe a Long Beach newspaper?

#3 - Lastly, do we know the color of this car?

Appreciate any help on this... Danny

Thanx, but doesn't look like that is what is printed on the door. TOO many letters? The door looks like a person's name... First initial of first name then a period, then their last name?
Like B. Argonopoly or ??

Just too hard to read. Hopefully SOMEONE knows.
WAIT!!! I just noticed the sign. In the upper right. THAT looks like what is on the door.
C. Agtyro Corner? Center? ... D

Dick Guldstrand was the driver and his name is on the restored car

In the original photo, you can see z/28 stripes on the trunk lid. So I don’t believe the car in the photo is dale Armstrongs car. Though his car was Omaha orange.

Don't think so.
The hanging sign says,"SERVICE-PARTS"(small curved arrow) "Around Corner"
