Humphrey Motors, Inc - VW Dealership in Hayward, CA

This is where Big Blue was first sold in the summer of '68. I tried to track down the building last summer and it's gone. At least, I think it is. The address didn't exist anymore. If I get in the area again, I'll see if it's still there now that I know what it looked like...
