LONG-ESTABLISHED TRADITION

When the Automobile
Dealers’ Association of
Greater Vancouver was

formed over 62 years ago,
the idéa of an Annual Auto
Show quickly gained ap-
proval from the Executive.
The presentation of new
automobiles, stil novel and
unique on the transportation
scene, but changing and
developing from year to year
gained favor with the public
as well, and a tradition was
established.

Even in those early days
the idea of a salon setting for
the show was determined.
The finest presentation that
could be arranged for the
Auto Show was always
uppermost in the dealers’
minds although the number
of car models available was
considerably different from
loday. .

For the 1982 Auto Show,
opening January 22-31, the
Dealers’ Association will
spend many thousands of
dollars on i and
labour for installation.
Special new hanging ban-
ners, hundreds of potted
shrubs, curtaining and
colour will be added to the
walls and ceilings.

The manufacturers
themselves will enhance the
exhibits.General Motors will
feature a huge revolving
table newly mirrored for the
1982 presentation. Subaru
will feature a _ specially
designed platform which
