Summary

The OK Used Car lot at Litten’s Chevrolet-Olds dealership on W. Potomac Street. Photo probably dates to around 1964 given some of the cars parked in the back of the lot.

How many bought their first used car from this lot?

The main showroom for new cars was in the main building on the left, which, along with the repair garage behind it, is still there today.

Those buildings were commissioned in the early 1900s by Harry Y. George for an in-law, who ran the Albaugh Chevrolet dealership at 600 W. Potomac Street in the years before Litten's.

Jim Phillips Loved going there when the new models came out-i think they came out in October?


Mike Campbell I bought a 1971 Nova there. Still in the family as my son Matthew has it now.

Patricia Orye Paul Orye had an antique car he had rebuilt and it was in the paint shop. The shop caught on fire and burned it up.

James Martz Jr. My Dad was a mechanic working there. I remember he took me along one night when he was on call driving the tow truck. I slept in the show room. We had 1 called that night.

Sherry Bowers Stull My first car was a used white Corvair purchased from Littens in 1967. The body shop is to the right of showroom building and the mechanics shop sat behind the showroom building.

Kerry Myers A Corvair was my parents first car. They had everything in Brunswick and never needed one. We just use my grandparents big old Chrysler. I worked there in 68 and 69 early 70s to. They sold the place and I hung out there almost the whole life. I love that place.

Joseph E. Shomaker I bought my first used car there. 1949 Oldsmobile that was owned by Moonie Forrest who worked there.

Terry Himes Robinson My Pap Himes didn't buy a Corvair from them, but he did win one from the dealership in a raffle at the American Legion in Brunswick.

Kevin Barker Every year Chevrolet would put out nice poster type photos or paintings of all their new models. As a west end kid, I would walk over and get one of each model to collect.
