Corky Coker is the Grand Marshal Emeritus for this year’s Fourth Annual Chattanooga Motorcar Festival, a three-day event that includes a Rallye, Concours d’Elegance, and many more events. Corky assumed the leadership role in the Coker Family’s BF Goodrich tire dealership in 1974 and for the next 45 years, he and his team have helped define the collector-car hobby. Coker tires solved the challenge of finding the right tires for your collector car. The company grew into the largest supplier of collector vehicle tires in the world, with distribution in over 50 countries. He sold his business in 2018 and retained the Honest Charley Speed Shop in downtown Chattanooga where he shares over 180 vintage cars and motorcycles.
