Your trusted Chevrolet dealer serving Kamloops, BC and surrounding areas. BannisterChevKamloops.com Welcome to Smith GM, in Kamloops, BC. The Syd Smith Ltd. (now Smith Chevrolet Cadillac Ltd.) story begins in Regina, Saskatchewan, in the summer of 1915, at which time Syd Smith formed the first Automotive Dealership to bear his name. By 1930, the operation had moved to Gull Lake, Saskatchewan, and at that time, a franchise contract was entered into with Col. Read more Sam McLaughlin of Oshawa, Ontario, to sell and service the famous car that bore his name, along with the other well known makes that eventually became known as General Motors of Canada. This franchise was to give Syd Smith Ltd. the distinction of being the oldest General Motors Dealership in Canada operating under the same name. In 1937, Syd Smith successfully negotiated the purchase of the General Motors franchise in Kamloops from the Wolf family, who operated Kamloops Motors Ltd. at that time. His first place of business was located near the northwest corner of 4th Avenue and Victoria Street and with the subsequent purchase of the A.C. Ward property on the corner itself, included most of the area where the Bank of B.C. building now stands. Syd Smith brought his family to Kamloops on September 11, 1937 and with their help, commenced operations in his new Dealership immediately. Ten years later, son Max Smith purchased the Imperial Motordome Service Station from Jack Strainton of Kamloops, located on the southwest corner of 5th Avenue and Victoria Street. It had been part of the Union Bus Terminal operated by the Wilkinson family who had, by that time, moved their operations to the Lansdowne Street location. Shortly thereafter, Syd Smith Ltd. acquired the balance of the Bus Terminal complex, and moved their agency to this new location, where they continued to conduct their business. In 1953, linked with the progress of Kamloops, a substantial building program was undertaken by the company, which produced a new Automotive Centre on the site of the old building. It included a large service facility along with a parts department, showroom, sales and administrative offices. The second floor of the main building provided rental office space which was being used by local organizations. In 1964, because of the acute need for additional working area in the Service Department, a two storey Service Centre was constructed. It provided almost twice the original floor space Update description
