Chuck Haselwood's journey from a small-town farm in Ellensburg to a prominent business person and neighborhood leader in Bremerton is a testament to his willpower and entrepreneurial spirit. Partnering with Danny Jones, Chuck introduced his own gas station and sold cars, at some point creating a lasting collaboration with Bud Higgs to develop Chuck & Buds-- a cars and truck dealer that prioritized consumer solution, offering service warranties unheard of at the time.



Chuck's unrelenting drive for innovation led him to broaden his organization past utilized cars and trucks. He took a threat with Buick and later on became the first to provide Honda vehicles in the united state during the 1970s fuel crisis, noting the start of his national success. His decision to open up a Honda dealership was ahead of its time, demonstrating his capacity to identify potential in emerging markets. His development continued with other major franchises, and eventually, Chuck started the West Hills Auto Plex, a service that mirrors his devotion to high quality, stability, and social work. Chuck's legacy survives on not just in the autos he marketed, yet in his deep commitment to his area, which remains to thrive in Kitsap Region today.
