Brief History of Kirk's-Sineath Motor Company

Sineath Motor Company was formed in 1925 by J.I. Sineath. The business was located at Battleground, Green and Bellemeade streets across from Central Fire Station in downtown Greensboro. The early tow truck consisted of T-Model trucks, the largest being a 1923 Buick Touring car fitted with a hand crank crane. The building housed a garage, body shop, sold gas, tires, batteries, and other auto parts. The wreckers were a necessity for bringing in wrecked and broken-down vehicles for repair or storage. They were staffed 24 hours, 7 days a week, as they are today. Mr. Sineath purchased a 1940 Ford truck new and had Ford Body Company install a new Holmes 515 Traffic King wrecker. The wrecker was stored in Uptown Storage until needed for use. There were many wreckers put into use during this period, such as a beautiful 1932 Diamond T with a Holmes wrecker crane. The fleet continued to grow with a big Dodge with a Holmes wrecker and a large winch for heavy work. Also in use was the previously mentioned 1940 Ford along with a 1938 Ford with a Weaver crane. Storage was 50 cents for 24 hours and car wash for $1.00. Times and the value of a dollar surely have changed. In 1941, J.I. Sineath died unexpectedly and his service manager, AT. Kirkman, was appointed administrator of the estate.
