Walt Epprecht Leasing Las Vegas, Nevada Type: Transportation 457-1061 Status: Closed Open: 1925, Close: 2007 Epprecht started his automotive career as a salesman for a dealership in Sarasota, Fla., in 1955 and moved to Las Vegas in 1959, where he worked for Sellman Auto Co. He was promoted to sales manager of Sellman's dealership and bought the company in 1967. Epprecht operated the Dodge Chrysler dealership at 801 Fremont St. for a while, but, in 1968, he built a new facility that is now Chapman Dodge at 3470 Boulder Highway. Saitta, who later owned and operated four dealerships, started as general sales manager at the Boulder Highway dealership in 1980. In 1985, Epprecht gave Saitta an opportunity to become a junior partner in the Las Vegas Chrysler Plymouth dealership on Decatur Boulevard. Saitta bought out Gary Hanna's and Epprecht's interests in the dealership in 1990. Epprecht and Hanna also opened a Nissan dealership that later became United Nissan. Epprecht might be best remembered in Las Vegas as the dealer who persuaded members of the Southern Nevada New Car & Truck Dealers Association to close on Sundays in the 1970s.
