Earnhardt Chevrolet, a staple of north-Central Chandler since 1986, has relocated to a new facility in Queen Creek. The longtime Chandler facility was one of three Earnhardt dealerships in the city that Tex Earnhardt called home for the latter half of his life. The Chandler location sold and serviced all General Motors vehicles and operated a complete service department, parts department and collision center, all on-site.
Plans are being pursued for the Chandler property to be redeveloped by Toll Brothers into a 420-unit apartment complex called Uptown.
Since the new Chevrolet dealership in Queen Creek was built with all new equipment and fixtures, the items at the Chandler facility are no longer needed. Earnhardt Auto Centers is now offering an opportunity for customers and the general public alike a chance to bid on and purchase the items. It will host an online auction to sell the entire contents of the facility and is liquidating everything on-site, including vehicle lifts, paint booths, parts racks, office furniture, electronics, tools, shop equipment and much more.
“Very rarely does the general public get an opportunity to bid on and own a piece of a company that is so well known and respected” says Gabriel Prado, Founder and CEO of LocalAuctions.com. “This is an amazing opportunity not only for people in the auto dealer and auto mechanic industries, but for auto enthusiasts and the general public alike to bid on and purchase the assets from the former Earnhardt Chevy dealership location.”
Interested bidders are encouraged to view the online-only auction on LocalAuctions.com. Participation is open to everyone over 18, and registration is free on the website. Each item has a $5 opening bid, and everything must be sold and removed from the facility by Nov. 22.
Bidding is taking place now through 12 p.m. Mountain Time on Nov. 13. Interested buyers can preview the items in person from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. MT on Nov. 12. Earnhardt Chevrolet Chandler is located at 2121 N. Arizona Ave. in Chandler. Winning bidders are required to pick up and remove their items from from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 14 through Nov. 22, excluding weekends.
