Sure do. In the middle 70's I think ,my old stomping grounds Southland Volkswagen was sold to a group headed up by a friend of mine named Tom Carmichel and renamed Reliable Volkswagen. Several years later was sold again, renamed Tri-State Volkswagen. Resold in '86 to Nelson Bowers who owned BMW next door. renamed Village Volkswagen. I was the service mang. at that time for a year. Bowers moved VW dealership to where it is today and the original building was taken over by Infinity on Brainerd Rd.

FYI  At the time of Southland Volkswagen sale, It was the oldest VW dealership East of the Mississippi River. Here in Chattanooga . How 'bout that.
