Thread: Northeast Porsche dealers in 70/71?

    Northeast Porsche dealers in 70/71?

    I recently got some info on my 71S's initial delivery and want to research further- aside from having the actual physical dealer listing brochure, is there any resource that details Porsche dealerships in the northeast/Boston area in 1970/71? I don't have access to a dealer listing and was wondering if there was some sort of online resource that someone may have put together.

    Thanks,

    Short Answer = the published Porsche Dealer Listing, frequently found in w/ the Owner's Manual, and other docs, in the glove compartment


    Meanwhile, as far as Dealers in '70, here are the ones listed in the Apr '69 PDL . . .

    ...Atamian Motors, Inc . . . . . . . Worcester
    ...Foreign Motors, Inc . . . . . . . . Boston
    ...Auto Engineering, Inc . . . . . . . Lexington
    ...Import Plaza, Inc . . . . . . . . . . Springfield
    ...Walsh's Foreign Car, Inc . . . . . . Haverhill
    ...Boston Foreign Car's, Inc . . . . . Boston
    ...Autohaus, Inc . . . . . . . . . . . . Cohasset
    ...Trans-Atlantic Motors, Inc . . . . Hyannis


    FWiW + IMO . . . I don't believe there was a 'hard' cut-off when dealers sold/stopped selling Porsches --- being listed for one year but not the next doesn't mean that some left-over cars couldn't've being sold later than a Dealer's appearance in a listing. . . so I take the PDLs as a guide

    Anyway . . . HtH
