Is anyone familiar with Shug Glenn Buick in Lex Ky
Hey guys, I wasn't sure where to post this, but I came upon a neat peace of memorabilia today. I believe that it is an ash tray, or atleast looks to have been used as one at one time or another. I says Shug Glenn Buick, Lexington Kentucky around the edge and then it has a picture of what looks like a dealership cast into the middle of it. Casting date is 1970. Is anyone familiar with this dealership? Anything special about it?
Here are some pictures for you to see.

I googled the dealership and came up with 3 dead links. Must not have done much.

Re: Is anyone familiar with Shug Glenn Buick in Lex Ky
the only thing I know for sure is that it isn't there anymore. Isn't the Buick dealership there Glenn Buick? I would try to contact the ownership and ask them. Ha! I just noticed that you are located in Lexington. I lived there for four years and currently live only two hours away. I have a friend up there who used to sell cars in the area back in the 70's who has a nice GS Stage 1. He's an old man I used to work with when I was at UK. I'll try to give him a ring tonight. Chances are, that's where he ordered his car if that was the Buick dealership in Lexington in 1970.

I guess I'll have to mosey on down there and see what the skinny is. I had never even heard of the place. I assumed that it may have had some ties with glenn buick, nissan, mitsubishi, infiniti, hyundai, gmc.... and whatever else they carry. The lot is 1/2 mile long it seems.

Sugar Glenn was Bruce Glenn's father and founder of Sug Glenn Buick on High Street in Lexington, ky. It was situated to the right of Calvary Baptist Church. Bruce Glenn later developed the Glenn Auto Group on Richmond Road. After Bruce Glenn's death, General Manager Cy Dicken purchased the dealership and eventually sold it. The property and dealerships are now owned by Don Franklin.
