Enumclaw’s Art Gamblin Motors has announced a remodel to the Chevrolet and Buick dealership on state Route 410.

The project will consist of integrating a new Chevrolet entry with new interior flooring and finishes. A drive-in service reception area will be constructed which will allow service customers to keep out of the wind and rain when delivering their cars for maintenance and repair.

The new look will align with Chevrolet dealerships across the country. It is meant to promote a clean brand image by incorporating aluminum composite materials on the outside of the building with consistent colors and finishes on the inside.

“This undertaking is a big investment, but Chevrolet has a bonus program to reimburse our dealership,” owner Alan Gamblin said. “With our Chevy sales up 66 percent this year we anticipate a full return on our investment over the next four years of the program.”

He noted the dealership will be able to continue to service and sell vehicles during the remodel without any inconvenience to customers.Construction starts the week of Oct. 17 and is expected to take four months to complete.
