In 1948 the company separated the autos from the tractors, thus beginning Stovall Tractors. In 1960 with the retirement of Mr. Stovall, ownership of the company went to Calvin Stovall Jr. and management of Stovall Tractors was given to Mabin Bently. In 1995, Stovall Tractor was sold to Mr. Tommy White and became North Georgia Tractor, Inc . Henry "Calvin" Stovall Jr. was born in Cornelia, Georgia on August 20, 1915. He was the son of the late Henry C. Stovall, Sr. and Elizabeth Patton Phillips Stovall, and was preceded in death by his two sisters, Elizabeth Stovall Cuttino Griffin, and Laura Stovall Davis. Calvin attended Habersham County Schools and received his A.B. degree from the University of Georgia in 1937. He was a member of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. After college he began his career with Commercial Credit Corporation as Office Manager in Columbus, Georgia and Mobile, Alabama. Calvin began his automotive career in 1946 after his release from active duty in the U.S. Army. While in service from November 1940 to February of 1946, Calvin rose in rank from Private to Major. He participated in ten campaigns and received 10 battle stars in the African-European Theater. He retired from the U.S. Army Reserve as a Colonel and Commanding Officer in 1970. The retired President and Chief Executive Officer of Stovall Motor Company and Stovall Tractor Company, both companies founded by his father, Calvin was an active member of the Georgia Automobile Dealers Association (GADA) and the National Automobile Dealers Association. He served as President of the GADA in 1975 and 1976. He was the State of Georgia’s Time Magazine Quality Dealer Award winner in 1974. Calvin was honored by Ford Motor Company on many occasions earning 13 Ford Distinguished Achievement Awards. He represented dealers of the Southeastern Region on the Ford National Dealer Council in 1970. Giving of his time and talents to his automotive career did not keep Calvin from being extremely active in civic, religious, and community endeavors. He served as President of both the Habersham County Chamber of Commerce and the Cornelia Kiwanis Club, and served on the Board of the Cornelia Housing Authority for 40 years. Appointed by Governor Carl Sanders to the State of Georgia Commission on Aging in 1966, he served in that capacity for a six-year term. Governor Jimmy Carter appointed Calvin to the Council on Aging for the Department of Human Resources from 1972-1975. From its inception in the early 1950s, Calvin served on the Executive Committee and as a officer of Wesley Homes, Inc., a United Methodist organization of the North Georgia Conference to care for the aging. In 1974, Calvin was named by the Supreme Court of Georgia to serve on the State Disciplinary Board of the State Bar of Georgia for a two-year term. He was one of the first three lay members who were appointed to serve on this distinguished board. And, in 1990, the Habersham County Rotary Club honored Calvin by naming him a Rotary International Paul Harris Fellow. Several years later, the Cornelia Kiwanis Club honored him with the Kiwanis International Hixson Award and, most recently, named him a Kiwanis Fellow. A long-time supporter of his alma mater, the University of Georgia, Calvin contributed his financial support to the “Memorial Garden” project honoring service men and women who served our country during World Wars. He was a strong advocate and dedicated supporter of Piedmont College as well. Calvin also served his church in virtually every capacity a layman can. Most recently, he served on the Long-Range Planning Committee of the Cornelia United Methodist Church, and, for the last few years, served on the Administrative Board as the church’s representative to the Habersham Christian Learning Center’s Board of Trustees. In 2008, he was elected an honorary life-time member of the Administrative Board. A member of both the Masons and Shriners for over 50 years, Calvin also served as both the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Community Bankshares, Inc. In April 2007 he was named Chairman Emeritus of the bank holding company. He also served on the board of Community Bank & Trust since 1967 and the board of Financial Supermarkets, Inc. from its inception in 1984. Calvin was a charter member of the Habersham Historical Society and was honored by the City of Cornelia in 2008 as the recipient of its Citizenship Award. Through his life-long commitment to his church, his family, and his career, Calvin continually placed the welfare of others above his own. A true “Southern Gentlemen”, he was a living example of a devoted husband to his wife Nancy, father of daughter, Marcia, and friend to many, many people. His example fulfilled the time-honored statement that “Service to others is, indeed, the rent we pay for the space we occupy here on earth.’ Henry “Calvin” Stovall, Jr., died on November 15, 2009 in Cornelia, Georgia after an extended period of declining health. He was 94. We have no affiliation with Stovall Motor Co. Or North Georgia Tractor, Inc. Thank you and Good Luck! |

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.
Thieves still love older Hondas and pickups most, says NICB [w/video]
Wed, 20 Aug 2014No one wants to have their car stolen, but a new study by the National Insurance Crime Bureau has some bad news for older Honda owners and pickup drivers. Fortunately, it has better news for drivers overall. The group is reporting that according to preliminary data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, thefts were down 3.2 percent in 2013 (versus 2012) to fewer than 700,000 cars. That's the lowest figure since 1967. That's also less than half of the peak of over 1.66 million thefts in 1991. "The drop in thefts is good news for all of us," says NICB President and CEO Joe Wehrle. "But it still amounts to a vehicle being stolen every 45 seconds and losses of over $4 billion a year."
Honda drivers might not find it such good news with older Accord and Civic models topping this year's theft study. Toyota and Dodge can't really celebrate, either, with two models each on the list, as well. Overall, this year's list was split evenly between foreign and domestic models, which were mostly pickups.
The 10 most likely vehicles to be stolen in 2013 were:
Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.
