Martin Chevrolet in Torrance will survive a wave of planned closures of General Motors dealerships, said Joe Giacomin, who owns the local car lot.
"We made the cut thanks to all our customers," Giacomin wrote in an e-mail to the Breeze.
GM said Friday that it would close 1,100 of its dealerships by the end of next year to cut costs as the carmaker considers temporarily entering bankruptcy.
Martin Chevrolet, at 23505 Hawthorne Blvd., has been in operation for 61 years.
