- Well, I don't remember the jingle at all; perhaps it was a local
- business? Since I didn't know for sure what area it might have
- originated in, I searched all area codes for current businesses:
-
- 201 Lou's Oil Service, Cromwell, CT
- 215 Don Charleston & Co., Philadelphia, PA
- 404 Parks Truck Repairing & Svc,. Ellijay, GA
- 510 Park Plaza Hotel, Oakland, CA
- 618 All American Coaches, Staunton, IL
- 703 Bell Auto Parts, Front Royal, VA
- 901 Weather Forecast, Ripley, TN
- 906 Old McDonald Furniture Barn, Sault Sainte Marie, MI
-
- Hope that helps!
