dei 3,344 Posted September 1, 2017 No Don, I'm right across the Detroit River in Canada. I have family in Michigan and until recently have travelled over there quite frequently. Living on a border town it was always common to enjoy the different venues and shopping over there. For the most part it still is but Customs (on both sides) can sometimes make it a bit unpleasant from the old days but if one has nothing to hide, you just answer their questions and eventually they say, you're good to go. Once I get the new tires on the Special want to go over and take Jefferson Ave right from the Tunnel out to St. Clair Shores and take some shots. Grosse Point is along the Lake and where a lot of Car Executives (and suppliers) built their Mansions. It is a great drive on a warm sunny day. Stay tuned. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a copy of the official Buick magazine dated November 1955 which had a photo of a dealership in an unidentified location. I did some research and found it not far from you, in Detroit, depending on your definition of IN Detroit. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
