Shottenkirk Automotive Group Years of Shottenkirk Automotive Group

It all started over Shottenkirk Automotive Group years ago in Abingdon, Illinois with the opening of Dean and Bob's Chevrolet. Bob Shottenkirk took over sole ownership four years later and served the communities of western Illinois for 20 years before moving the dealership to downtown Fort Madison, Iowa in November 1984.
Shottenkirk Chevrolet/Oldsmobile grew quickly in southeast lowa, raising the level of service and competition and spurring considerable growth in automotive and service sales. Shottenkirk became a "magnet" for regional car and truck shoppers.
Over the next 5 years, The GM GIANT, continued to dominate the car market as well as draw regional customers from a 100 mile radius. In the fall of 1989, following the untimely death of Bob Shottenkirk, his son, Greg, assumed the primary leadership role in the dealership.
