Towbin Automotive sells vintage vehicle for charity

Towbin Automotive, the operators of Towbin Dodge Superstore in Henderson, recently auctioned off a 1924 Dodge Brothers 116 series sedan for $9,900, with profits going to Three Square Food Bank.

The auction, which was held on popular website eBay, opened Oct. 24 and closed Nov. 3.

Betty Wilkey, winner of the vintage vehicle, picked up her new ride Tuesday at the Dodge dealership. Wilkey now holds the honor of purchasing the oldest car ever sold at a Towbin dealership.

Wilkey has been a Las Vegas resident for more than 50 years and purchased the vehicle specifically to help benefit Three Square. Three Square is a favorite charity of the Towbin family.

Towbin Automotive has three dealerships in the Las Vegas Valley. For more information, visit www.kingofcars.com.
