This is certainly off the topic of Phil Long, but I have some information on several Ford dealers from the 1960’s which may be of interest to you and your website.   These are articles published by Ford which feature Stark Hickey on Woodward Ave,  El Paso Auto Center,  Stark Hickey West, Borgman Ford Sales, Marshall Motor Company, J.D. Ball Ford, Richmond Motor Company, Stark Hickey Ford, Frank Cate Ford, Tasca Ford Sales, Dub Richardson Ford, Culver Motors,  Sullivan Ford Sales, and J. D. Ball Ford.   Most articles are from “Ford Crest News”, a publication about salesmen (like Dean Gregson of Tasca) and the Top Hat Club (sales of 300-500 cars annually).  There is a really nice article about Stark Hickey in the December 1969 Autolite Merchandising News.  Some feature Shelby’s on the showroom floor.   I would like to share these with you.   I may know someone who has info about Phil Long.   John in Sandy, Utah perhaps.   Contact me through SAAC if your interested in these.

Special Ed, please send me your email through SAAC.   I would like to send you this article.  It focuses on the salesman at Marshall.  Contacting him or his family may lead to new discoveries.  Thanks, Dean
