After three years of negotiations, Wendell Crowe told The News Monday he will finally sign a land swap agreement Wednesday afternoon to eventually move his Covington Ford dealership from its U.S. Highway 278 location to the Covington ByPass Road. Once the agreement is signed, Crowe will have exactly one year to complete construction of a new dealership at 9101 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Ave. and transfer all of his equipment, inventory and personnel. However, he will retain control of the current body shop and continue to operate it.
