Kauth & Mayeur (high end import car dealership) was located for years on Main @ Orange but is moving and rehabbing a warehouse on Detweiller off of University, looking good btw - my question is - what is or will be built on their old place? I've heard rumors about apartments or a possible boutique hotel?

Just goes to show how much I know about high end imports these days. I didn't even know this place existed.
Back in the 70s, a friend of mine had an old Austin Healey 'Bug Eye' and a new Lotus Europa. Hew worked at Cat and part time at Morry's on Adams.

I remember Morry's. Manager was a guy named Jerry,....good guy. He might have been the owner.

I hate car dealers. I have called Mike Murphy multiple times for service and they are rude because I am female. I even had my husband call right after, say the same things and they bend over backwards to help him.
 
I have written them off completely.....

I used to deliver parts at KAUTH & MAYEUR for years. Outside building might not look the best, but would work on some very impressive cars inside. Very nice owner and workers there.

My ex-husband and I had a funky sports car back in the late 80's/early 90's. It was a Pontiac Fiero. He bought it from a CAT Manager who was going thru a divorce. We had it for about 4 years. He took it to Kauth and Meyeur to get it worked on a couple of times. It was fun to drive for me because I'm 4'10". He was tall, so, it wasn't very comfortable. He also came home with a really nice Chevy Corvette another time from another CAT employee who was going thru a divorce. This Corvette was light blue and a "T-Top" model, really nice. I wasn't allowed to drive this car and I was fine with that. My ex-husband was always wheeling and dealing cars and other things. Once he brought home a Harley Davidson motorcycle that was "disassembled" that he bought from a friend. It was still in that state when we divorced. When I married my current husband and we were moving into our house, he showed me his Harley Davidson motorcycle that was in "disassembled" status. Unbelievably, he had purchased it from my ex-husband. Life is so weird.

@mypeez : I don't blame you. That is ridiculous.
