Jim Soutar Dodge


2 comments:

  1. A '63 Dodge, Jeep Wagoneer, and Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser. Located in beautiful Barstow. Now Barstow Auto Sales, a used car dealer.

    According to Jim Soutar's (1918-2010) obit, he was born in Luverne, Minnesota (!), moved to Barstow in April, 1962, and bought the former Charles Kail Chrysler-Plymouth. Soutar had many pursuits including amateur radio and snow skiing, and was a licensed pilot, once owning two airplanes. He was such an accomplished skier that he acted as a stunt double for the actor Bob Cummings in the 1949 film, "Tell It To The Judge".

  2. And down the street there's Soutar's High Desert Auto Supermarket, selling Fords, Lincolns, and Nissans.
