It's hard to believe it has been 50 years! Beetlesmith was founded in 1969. Jerry started out as a proprietor of a Richfield service station and auto repair in the Kennydale area of North Renton. Coincidentally the next month Boeing laid off hundreds of engineers. The slogan back then was "Will the last one leaving Seattle please turn off the lights!"
Jerry had unemployed engineers asking him to trade gas for their cars for firewood. After two years in the Kennydale location Jerry relocated to downtown Renton on Logan Avenue close to Boeing. In 1978 he relocated again to 5th and Park Avenue, still located close to Boeing. At one time Jerry estimated that 60% of his customers were Boeing employees.
