After 37 years, Carstens has been sold to Bayer Motor Co.
After a few months of talks, Carsten’s Motor Company on Walker Street has officially been sold to Bayer Auto Group out of Comanche. The dealership will now be called Bayer Chevrolet Buick Inc.
General Manager Zach Smith said he has been in the Eastland market for almost two years now, so setting up a partnership with Chas Bayer and Lucy Larose seemed to fit and make sense, calling it a “no-brainer.”
“We know it’s going to be a long process,” Smith said. “Luckily the Bayer group has done a lot of the work behind the scenes to ease into this.”
