GM Dealer - South Tacoma Motor Co (Washington)

[CamaroNOS]

Need some help here guys.

I recently purchased a 1969 Camaro SS 350/300 HP Hugger Orange survivor (Van Nuys build) and was lucky enough to get the Protect-O-Plate indicating that the selling dealer was the South Tacoma Motor Company located in Tacoma Washington. The car was sold on July 10, 1969.

I am looking for any info. regarding this dealership, such as was this a well known high profile dealer, does anybody on the site have any cars from this dealership, does anybody know anyone that might have worked there, etc?

I would also like to inquire about the history of this car. Is there a source for that type of info? I did contact the DMV from the state of Washington and came up empty.

<span style="text-decoration: underline">Any sort of help/leads would be appreciated.</span>

Below is a link (hope it works) to the Tacoma Public Library showing some really cool pictures of the dealership in it's day, with great shots of the showroom with 68 Novas, 68 Camaros, 69 Chevelles in it, salesmen from that era, the parts counter, etc.

Thanks,
