There's inventory at Wullenweber's auto dealership in Green Township, but they are used cars.

"We're just going to keep hacking away at it right now," said Sylvia Ellcoff, a member of the sales department.

Ellcoff and the other sales staff will no longer be selling new Chrysler products at Wullenweber's.

A bankruptcy judge has ruled that Chrysler could terminate hundreds of dealer franchises.

Annie (Wullenweber) Steele described what the day was like for her.

Her grandfather started the Wullenweber auto dealership 80 years ago, which stayed in the family.

"My dad passed away 10 years ago and there was this feeling of loss –  and that's what this is like," Steele said.

Wullenweber customers says Ellcoff have remained loyal and supportive.

"To have a wonderful reputation like Wullenweber has for the last 80 years has left a lot of customers disappointed," said Ellcoff.
