Chapter 19- The GM Corvette Assembly Plant

Chapter 19 of “Life Behind the Counter- the Story of Chuck Evans and his Liquor Stores” evolves around the General Motors Corvette Assembly Plant. With both the original Chuck’s Liquors and Chuck’s #1 being located near the Assembly Plant, the impact that GM made upon Chuck’s stores was substantial. Also substantial was Chuck’s impact upon those who worked at the Plant. In this chapter, you will read about:

  • the extra touches that Chuck put in place while at the original Chuck’s Liquors to bring the GM business into his store.
  • when Chuck opened Chuck’s #1 just down the road, the ways in which Chuck made the extra drive to his new store worth the effort.
  • a snapshot into some of the workers at the Corvette Plant who became Chuck’s faithful customers and friends.

Thinking back upon my time working at Chuck’s #1, it was a true pleasure to get to know the folks who worked at the Assembly Plant and I know that Chuck felt the same. In my next chapter preview, we will look at Chapter 20 which will discuss what Christmas with Chuck was like through the years. Thanks for following along!
