. . . trying to find out which exact Porsche dealership my 1972 911S (#520) was originally sold through . . . no window sticker or original log book . . . was a Bay Area car and sold to the second owner in Petaluma in 1974. According to him, the original owner was a physician in Santa Rosa . . . and what the name of the Porsche dealer was in Santa Rosa in 1972? . . .

Hmm

I have a listing for Veale as a Porsche dealer in Santa Rosa, in '70 PDL. . . but not after --- at least thru Sep '73. In fact, I show NO dealers of Longhoods North of The City for that interim. Veale was around for a while, after --- VWs? . . . and may've serviced/re-sold Longhoods . . . but not as an 'official' dealer, so . . .

My guess would be that the car was originally sold by one of the Big Dealers in The Bay Area --- then taken North. Here's a listing of possibles . . .

Tom Mason Porsche+AUDI
250 Abby St, Fresno

Team Lucas P+A
19100 Mission Blvd, Hayward

Quite sure Veale was a Vdub dealership back in the 70`s .....around the bay area

I am pretty sure that Veale was in operation all through the 70s and 80s and beyond.
Veale operated a bunch of dealerships, including Porsche, in Santa Rosa
Don't forget Leon C. Felton in Mill Valley, either.
