Default Dealership changeover

Hi all.
Story goes, I was asked to do a feature with a new magazine that focuses on original & unrestored cars.
I am currently waiting on an old vehicle report from Ford, but in the meantime they have given me details over the phone.

What I am wanting to find out is:- The original dealership my car was sold from was called John Lucas Ford - Moorabbin, Vic.
My owners handbooks have Franz Bird Ford filled out in them, but the verification from Ford states John Lucas Ford.
The car is a 10/73 build and I can only assume there was a change in ownership of the dealer from when the car was built until it was sold some three months later.
I know that Franz Bird was the first dealership the Jefferson group bought in 1980.
Would any of our mature members be able to she'd some light please?

Thanks in advance.
