As promised, Steve, I used a whole raft o' filters on that rear panel dealership decal pic, and, the more I looked at it, the more it DOES appear to be "ERIE" to me, too! (Post # 316 on p. 32.)

I read the obit of the owner (Robert "Bob Sr." McClain) who opened the dealership in 1964, and, sold it in 1976. It sounds as if he led quite an interesting (and, auto-oriented) life. Here's the link:

I, also, noticed that, in the same newspaper ad which you included in this post, that, in addition to featuring Walt Arfons' Green Monster (appearing at nearby Norwalk Dragway (which became Norwalk Raceway Park, and, is currently, Summit Racing Equipment Motorsports Park)), that the dealership also sponsored an S/S Plymouth drag car (which looks like it's called "The Big Cat" driven by Tom Evans). Maybe someone remembers that car, and, in turn, remembers something about the dealership.
