This franchise was kept in the Redd family until 1968 when Sheldon Hansen, a veteran in the auto sales field, bought the company and changed its name to Sheldon Hansen Chevrolet. The next few years were good ones for the company , as sales and service continued con-tinued to grow to the point where the old facility at 129 W.
