FIXED OPS JOURNAL
FIXED IN TIME
Late 1950s
When Keystone Motors opened in 1957 in the Philadelphia suburb of Doylestown, Pa., it
became one of the first U.S. Volvo dealerships. Dealer principal Alfred Stein "sold cars during the
day, then he put on overalls and fixed cars at night," recalls his son Jack Stein, Keystone's CEO.
The dealership, now called Keystone Volvo Cars of Doylestown, has been brand-exclusive since
the early 1980s. But as these vintage snapshots suggest, in its early years it sold and serviced a
variety of car makes - and repaired the occasional school bus.
