Their marketing campaign is really resonating with the younger generation… along with those who appreciate the retro style. Enjoy!
Always an exciting milestone when a new monument sign gets unveiled at a new or renovated facility. Many Slate Auto employees on hand witnessed the event.

FYI- Amazon has just released a new paperback book on the ‘Slate Story’ authored by Gerald G. Haywood.
