About
About Harry Brown's Chevrolet
Driving good. Together.
Harry Brown's Chevrolet comes from a history of dedication, service to others, and family values. In the early years, the dealership was known as Harry Brown's Chevrolet and sat at the corner of Highways 21 and 60. That was over 50 years ago when a young and ambitious Harry Brown returned from serving his country and community as a member of the Naval Reserves. From that small two-room log cabin-style building, many more dreams were realized, including what is now known as Harry Brown's Chevrolet.
While owning and operating a full-service auto dealership that represents one of the largest automakers in the country and bears its name is exciting and rewarding, that is not what brings the most pride and greatest sense of accomplishment to the Harry Brown's Chevrolet. The true privilege and reward is continuing to serve this great community and the amazing friends and neighbors who give their loyalty to the business. The continued support of community members allows our dealership to provide jobs that support countless families in the area and to support the many worthy foundations and organizations that help those in need right here in our towns.
