A Rich Automotive History in Orange, VA
With roots dating back to 1938, this historic automotive location has been a part of the Orange, Virginia, community for nearly a century. What began as a small Shell service station eventually grew into an established car dealership, with decades of expansion, automotive innovation, and community involvement shaping its history.
The story began in 1938 with a small, family-operated Shell service station located approximately a quarter-mile from the property's current location. In 1938, the business relocated and began selling Pontiac vehicles supplied by a dealership in neighboring Madison County.
During World War II, vehicle sales shifted as family members served overseas and the business focused on purchasing, rebuilding, and reselling older vehicles. Following the war in 1945, the business officially secured its Pontiac franchise, establishing its foundation as a new car dealership in Orange, VA.
The following decades brought significant growth. Cadillac was added in 1951, followed by GMC trucks in 1963. As operations expanded, a neighboring building was purchased and converted into a dedicated body shop.
In 1968, another adjacent property was acquired and transformed into the main vehicle showroom, while the former showroom became a dedicated automotive service department. By 1970, the dealership expanded its offerings once again with the addition of Buick, further establishing the location as an automotive destination in Central Virginia. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the dealership continued operating under successive generations of family leadership, maintaining its presence in the Orange community.
In 1990, an additional lot was purchased to expand the property's road frontage and visibility along the main highway. The following year, Subaru was added as the location's first import vehicle franchise, marking another milestone in its automotive history.
Following these expansions, an additional used car center opened, further extending the location's automotive offerings.
A Longstanding Part of the Orange, VA Community
From a modest service station to an established dealership with dedicated sales, service, and collision repair facilities, Cavalier Auto Group aims to continue this legacy and serve the Orange, Virginia county and other communities in the Central Virginia region.-
