As of Monday, Clintonville Motors Inc, the Clintonville Ford dealership, has moved into its new 20,000 square-foot facility at 670 S. Main St., just south of Fleet Farm on U.S. Highway 45 south.
The dealership owned by Ron, Gary and Ryon Kautz was located at 27 W. 12th St. for more than 72 years before the Kautzes decided they had outgrown that location.
While many Ford dealerships in the area have closed, Clintonville Motors is now the largest Ford dealer in Waupaca and Shawano counties.
Area residents are invited to visit the new facilities. A ribbon cutting will be held at a later date. Ron Kautz said they still have a few things to take care of as they make the move.
At this time there are no plans for the 12th Street location. It is for sale, Ron Kautz said.
