Hi,
As many of you know, we had a fire in our showroom on February 9. The fire was confined to one vehicle in the rear of the building, and was extinguished in an extremely timely manner by the Wauconda Fire Dept. However, due to the use of a ladder truck, our roof sustained severe damage. Also, the fire dept. used smoke evacuators, which basically pulled smoke though the whole building and onto the porous walls. Since that time, we have been in overdrive with a complete remodel of the building, from the roof to the floors.
Contrary to internet and newspaper reports, no other vehicle damage occurred. All vehicles that were in the building were completely detailed and ionized. The fire investigation concluded it was accidental.
I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has offered their help during this time, many of which are members of this board. Without the assistance of many of our long time friends, we would have never been able to sustain our positive mental attitude.
With that said, this is an invitation to all to our Open House, Saturday, May 9. We will be open to the public, with new roof, paint, fixtures, neon, and several pieces of new Elvis memorabilia that replaced those lost in the fire. Jimy Sohns of the Shadows of Knight will be here, as well as Robert E. Lee Kiefer, Elvis impersonator from Tn.
Sixteen new vehicles are on their way, and you will be able to view them that day, as well as the remaining inventory. I hope that many of you can make it up. 25084 W. Old Rand Rd. Wauconda, IL. 60084 Open house from Noon-6 PM.
Thanks
Randy
