What do you know about Manausa Motor Sales, a Packard dealership at 314 S. Fourth Ave in Ann Arbor that opened in 1947 owned by Charles E. Manausa?

Manausa also owned a "super-service" gas station at 1126 S. University Ave, and handled AAA road service for a time.

In 1950, the firm switched allegiances and started selling Kaiser and Frazer automobiles, according to a May 10, 1950 Ann Arbor News story.

The 6600 sq ft building was later used as a car dealership by Tom Terrell Edsel, and subsequently converted to restaurant use as Maude's.
