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 earnings take a dive on investment, slowing sales; workers get $6,900 in profit sharing
Thu, Jan 29 2015Ford Motor Company's pre-tax profits for 2014 took a beating, falling to $6.3 billion, a $2.3-billion drop from 2013, while overall revenues fell from $139.4 billion to $135.8 billion. Net income for 2014, meanwhile, plunged 56 percent, from $7.18 billion to $3.19 billion. Yeah, those aren't great numbers. While Ford's figures are largely down across the board, some of the weaker numbers aren't too difficult to explain away. The company launched 24 vehicles across the globe in 2014, including some of its biggest and most important volume models, like the 2015 F-150, as well as iconic offerings like the new Mustang. The result of this is both increased investment as well as a drop in total sales – US market numbers were down 164,000 units compared to 2013. Recall claims and high warranty costs also did a number on the Blue Oval. "2014 was a solid yet challenging year for Ford - with our investments and a record number of new products launched around the world positioning us for strong growth this year and beyond," Ford CEO Mark Fields said in a statement. Ford's 50,180 UAW workers in the United States will receive profit-sharing checks of $6,900. In some markets, Ford's fortunes were impacted by outside factors. Europe, for example, recorded more sales (up 70,000 units) and higher revenues (up $2.2 billion), but still reported a $443-million pre-tax loss. Blame was placed on the crumbling Russian economy, which has suffered from sanctions and slumping oil prices. Despite its troubles last year, the company still seems bullish on 2015. Ford's pre-tax outlook remains unchanged, as the company expects to make anywhere from $8.5 to $9.5 billion on the back of higher revenue from the company's automotive operations. We expect strong growth and improved financial performance in 2015 driven by our investments in new products and capacity," Ford CFO Bob Shanks said of the company's future.
Ford profits soar as problems mount
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Ford is doing well. It can't make enough examples of its new Fusion, it can barely make enough of the aging F-150, it's getting good brand rankings, people like its turnaround story, it's selling oodles of product and its quarterly profit numbers end in the word "billion." As other high-flying examples have demonstrated over the past few years, though, big numbers can come with problems that aren't exactly small.
Automotive News has published a good "nutshell" report of Ford's progress and problems. The Dearborn automaker's optimistic "general label rule" determination of gas mileage for the C-Max Hybrid has led to lawsuits, hybrid software updates, a downward revision of C-Max fuel economy and millions in rebates. AN notes the C-Max was the "worst-scoring model in this year's J.D. Power Initial Quality Study," but Ford will probably be happy that it managed not to be mentioned further in the study's results after last year's mediocre showing. Its MyTouch and SYNC systems, the bugbears sabotaging Ford's J.D. Power results, have also led to lawsuits, software updates, more software updates and a center console rethink. On top of that, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the 2013 Ford Escape that Ford called a "hero" was soon catching fire for three different reasons. And let's not even get into the troubled launch of the Lincoln MKZ.
The Automotive News piece notes that industry observers have been surprised at Ford's stumbles because everything has been looking so good. Nevertheless, there is still the issue of those billions in profits - the company is doing plenty of things, plural, right. Ford says it is tackling its problems, hiring engineers and instituting new quality control processes as part of its effort to find solutions. The test will be to see if in a year from now we begin the discussion of these issues with "Remember when Ford...", or "Problems continue at The Blue Oval."
How did Ford keep the GT a secret before Detroit?
Mon, Feb 2 2015True secrecy is a rarity in the automotive industry. Sure, companies try to keep their future projects under wraps all of the time, but usually a spy shot or blurry development photo leaks out. The complete lack of any hard details before its unveiling likely helped make the Ford GT one of the biggest stars of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Not only was it the favorite of Autoblog's editors, but the supercar scored a prestigious EyesOn Design Award, too. Rumors about the vehicle had circulated for weeks before the show, but no one really knew much about the GT until it rolled onto the stage for Ford's press conference in Joe Louis Arena. Amazingly, the Blue Oval kept things mostly a secret during the car's 14- month gestation period prior to its debut. According to Automotive News, the GT project began in late 2013 by a skunk works team, including six designers, that guided the supercar along from birth until the unveiling. Ford kept things clandestine by locking the vehicle in a basement storage room, and only the group members got a key to the lock. Much of the development was also done at night to further keep the secret, but occasionally the prototype was hauled outside on weekends to check it out in natural light. Because of the speed in getting the development done and for even more stealth, the designers didn't get input from the Blue Oval's other styling teams around the world. But that was somewhat of a double-edged sword. "You don't actually get to bounce opinions off people," Ford design boss Moray Callum said to Automotive News. "We were on tenterhooks ourselves until the first people saw it." Even now, there are still mysteries surrounding the GT. There's still no official word on the supercar's power; just that it's over 600 horsepower. There are also the persistent rumors going back months that the Blue Oval plans to take the GT racing to celebrate the 50th anniversary of automaker's Le Mans victory. Although, maybe this time the secrecy wasn't so good because we might have got a glimpse of the racer, recently. Related Video:
