In the Philadelphia suburbs on the Jersey side, Rice & Holman started life as a T dealership. Today the Holman Group is a huge east coast multi-dealer operation.
In some recent consolidation, they found a '27 Hack that they had taken in trade in '52 and had been tarped in corners of their various places since and near forgotten.
New national headquarters were being built, and their T put back into operational shape for local events, and they found a home for it in the new lobby with a photo backdrop of their first dealership.
Pretty darned slick!
That is very nice display.
I am wondering that if they lost an entire car at the dealership for the last 60 years, how many employees are missing?
George had a large part in helping them get the T back into running shape. It was nice to see that they took the T out to a local charity car show recently. Here are two videos - the first shows them putting the car in the showroom and the second shows them starting it (with some difficulty) and driving it around the lot:

George gets a credit in the second video...
