Baltimore Car Dealerships

I know I’m going to regret this, but Kilduffs.Net will have a different format for the topic of Baltimore Car dealerships. This page will list as many Baltimore Car Dealerships in order.
Each week we will research and add a few more

A.D. Anderson

I remember over the years hearing about A.D. Anderson Chevrolet, which for years was just West of the Edmondson Village Shopping Center. The car dealership closed years ago and a food store was built on the site. There was another A.D. Anderson ( Olds ) on the same site and a another location at Howard and 25th Street .

One of the A.D. Anderson dealerships I don’t remember hearing about A.D. Anderson Fiat on 25th Street at Kirk. By 1960, it appears the Fiat’s were sold off of the lot at 4600 Edmondson Ave.

This ad dates back to 1958.

The same address was used for A.D. Anderson Rambler as well in 1960 . The building still stands today, used in commercial use.

Archway Ford
500 North Hilton Street ( At Edmondson Avenue )

The Auto Sales Company – Oldsmobile , a name plate that lasted for years! The model 42 could be bought for only $1,350 in 1914 and could be purchased at 1007 North Cathedral Street.

Baltimore Auto Show

Several early Baltimore Car Dealer ads I found were from the Carl Spoerer Car, that were advertised as early as 1910. I believe that were assembled in the 900 Block of South Carey Street.

In the 1910’s through the years, one of the best ways to see what was available to buy was to attend ” the Baltimore Auto Show ” which was held for years at the Fifth Regiment Armory in Baltimore City. For a spell, they moved the show to the Candler Building in downtown Baltimore. More recently, the Baltimore Car Show has been moved to the Baltimore Convention Center. There were years that it appears the Car show was also held at the Montgomery Wards Building on Washington Blvd and Monroe Street.

Park Circle Chevrolet
Way back in 1980, I remember riding my ten speed bike past this location and seeing the abandoned and empty Park Circle Chevrolet at the intersection of Reisterstown Road and Druid Hill Avenue. The dealership was a very large dealer where the new cars were sold on the Northwest corner and used cars were sold along Druid Park . Carlin’s Park was very close to all this as well.

In 1957, Park Circle Chevrolet sponsored” Park Circle Theatre” on WAAM TV ( Channel 13 – now WJZ TV )

Looking for a 1971 Chevy Vega ? Park Circle had you covered.
