Nice truck terminal, for those of us 8 years & up!
My BOTW is another Plasticville salvage job. First picture is as I got it, the others after fixing it up. This is the Mirror Motors car dealership. The showroom portion is now available as a hamburger place. The complete building is now only available in N.

That is one fine looking car dealership! Love the gravel roof and new planter out front, really adds a lot of realism. Would not have guessed it was originally plasticville without that before photo...

Great car dealerships. Sorry to break the thread, but haven't much to compare.
For this I reached back into the Tycomania archives and found this photo of my
beloved Myrtle's Café, rec'd in trade from TF's Raysouthernpac. I have Myrtle's
whistle soldered to a 9 volt battery, at the suggestion of Microbuss, and she
whistles mournfully. You might note by the lights in the trolley windows that
this is not a staged shot; it was captured in motion. I should also note that
WKS sent me a replacement roof for the crossing gate shanty the next week!
This view of Myrtle's has an Edward Hopper feel to it; bordering apocalyptic.

Neat looking layout Chops. I have that little merry go round I see in the background too. Just waiting for space to build my amusement park.
And my car dealer is HO, but you can only buy it new in N now a days.

anyway I like how you painted the stones 
IF I ever find one it would be a Ford dealership
not saying I don't like Chevy cause I drive a S10
& the MPGs are in the 20 to 30 range
I just want to be different hehe
