There is so much wonderful stuff to look at here. The clawfoot display case and the assortment of jacks. Horn and light displays, tire pumps of all kinds. I have one of the accessory windshields hanging above.
I have tried to capture the colors that would have been in these scenes and set up this layout after seeing this picture earlier:

Thanks for posting this one.

Somewhere, someplace, in a small forgotten town, there is an old Ford dealership that was walled off, forgotten, the doors closed in the late 1920s…with all the inventory left behind just like the picture shows. I just haven’t found it yet.

Yup, have posted a few pics before. It's a recreated teens/twenties parts store. Been working on it for years. It's a nice place to hang out and talk old car stuff. We sometimes sip Whisky there too.
