Default Question about Grand Sport motors

Hey guys, I know that a few people here, who were also customers of Grand Sport Motors, might be able to help answer my question.
Does anyone know when and/or why Bill & Grand Sport Motors is no longer around, on Langstaff Rd E. in Thornhill, just curious?
Drove by the shop today, and it's gone, some new business is undergoing renovation of the property, and even his website seems to have been taken down.

Thanks for any feedback.

Hey Frank.

Yeah they closed up shop a few months ago as Bill has retired but Dino has a shop up in Newmarket on Yonge St.

Bill has retired. Great guy, honest, professional. I went to him for so long, first met him when I purchased my 63 fuelie, etc
So trustworthy.
Same with Dino is a great, honest upfront guy also, he has a shop, Hot WheelZ in Newmarket, I would go to him but he is too far for me now as I live in Port Credit

I agree, I met them both back in 2006 when they directed me to a customer of theirs who was selling a C3, which I ended up buying, and had fun with, then met a lot of great people here on this forum. He was my go to guy for both my summer toy (currently don't have one) as well as my daily drivers; I was always one who liked to support the "little guy" and make his business grow, instead of large dealerships.
