Auto Credit of Jamestown will hold its grand opening on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The new dealer operation features a brand new sales and service facility.

Auto Credit of Jamestown was founded in the 1980s by Tim Shults and Ed Shults Jr. Since then, it has become the area’s largest buy here, pay here facility, serving the credit-challenged for more than 30 years.

To celebrate the grand opening, the following events have been scheduled:

Official ribbon-cutting ceremony, 11 a.m.;

99-cent chicken barbecue from 11:30 a.m. until gone (limit four per family, one per person;)

Denny Hamlin’s NASCAR show car will be on site for photo opportunities from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.;

Visitors who stop from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. can also enter to win a flat screen TV. The event will also feature other activities.

“We are excited to open another brand new facility here in Jamestown,” said Tim Shults, president of the Shults Auto Group. “Our new service department will allow our Auto Credit customers a higher level of ownership experience and satisfaction.”
