Default Maryvale Ford

I saw a picture of a Ford Dealership Maryvale Motors Commercial Road Morwell, from the 1960s.
I had a look on the State Library of Victoria and the business listed in 1965 but no reference in 1970.

I was wondering does anyone have any information on Maryvale Motors please?

Yes I also remember back in the Eighties the Traralgon Ford Dealer being Maryvale Motors and they had their show room in Princess street just near the Railway station.

I'm pretty confident that Maryvale Ford morphed (i'm not quite sure on the details of how) into valley Ford. I'm also confident that Maryvale Ford does not exist any longer as a going concern.
