BD Construction to Rebuild Harchelroad Motors Dealership
(Kearney, NE; Jan. 7, 2015) — BD Construction Inc., one of the Midwest’s leading construction companies, started construction on a new dealership for Harchelroad Motors in Imperial, Neb., the largest General Motors (GM) dealership between Denver and central Nebraska.
Located at 600 E. Highway 6 in Imperial, the 29,000-square-foot dealership building will be just west of the new collision and restoration center that BD Construction finished for the company in 2013. The new buildings replace ones destroyed in a 2009 fire.
“Built to the high standards set forth by Harchelroad Motors and GM, this building will have 22 service bays, an inside drive-through car wash with driers, a large parts department and an enlarged office and showroom area,” said Mark Benjamin, president and CEO of BD Construction. “This will be a great space for this dealership to meet the needs of its growing business.”
The new building will also include two quick lube oil changing bays, a full alignment machine and a drive-through diagnostics machine. Outside, 175 stalls are planned for new and used vehicles.
“We will hire additional new employees when we move into the new building and have the space we need to provide exceptional service,” said Sid Harchelroad, owner of Harchelroad Motors. “We appreciated the quality work BD Construction did on our collision center, which is why we chose the company for this building too.”
The dealership has operated out of a temporary location, which will become space for sports cars and restoration, as well as a Corvette showroom. In addition to the dealership and collision center, Harchelroad Motors is world-renowned for its custom car and restoration business and has locations in Imperial and Wauneta, Neb.
Construction of the dealership is expected to be complete by summer 2015.
