He started the dealership with only two employees and worked tirelessly those first few years building a business in the Midlands community that is now in its 32nd year.  Ed’s number one goal has never changed - to sell quality cars and provide great customer service.  Ed does not work in the day to day operations anymore, but helps the dealership with body and paint repair. Ed and his wife Marcia have been married for more than 33 years. They have 2 daughters, Ashley and Allison, and five granddaughters. They now enjoy spending time cruising around the Caribbean and shrimping in Beaufort.</span></p> <p> </p></div> </div> <div class="com-our-team-staff-bio"> <div class="info-window"> <div class="info-window-header"></div> <div class="info-window-content"> <div class="staff vcard"> <div class="photo"><img src="//cdn-ds.com/media/staff/w_50/h_50/Luke-Godwin-32206.jpg" alt="Luke Godwin" class="photo" title="Luke Godwin" /></div> <div class="info"> <div class="position role title">General Manager/Owner</div> <div class="name fn">Luke Godwin</div> <div class="phone">803-252-8774</div> <span class="org"><span class="value-title" title="Godwin Motors"></span></span> <span class="adr"><span class="value-title" title="4032 West Beltline Blvd."></span></span> <span class="url"><span class="value-title" title="http://godwinmotors.com"></span></span> </div> </div> </div> <div class="info-window-footer"></div> </div> <div class="bio"><p><span style="color:#222222;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;">Luke started working for his dad, Ed Godwin, when he was 10 years old washing cars at Godwin Motors.
