★★★★★ 5.0 Fabian Galvan · Mar 2020

In a couple of weeks Joe revived my 1950 Chevy Styleline Coupe that had been sitting in my dad's garage for 40 years!! He is a great mechanic and an all around great guy. He's been doing it practically all his life and along with his son Jason a great resource to have in town. He knows everyone and everyone knows him! Be on the lookout for him rolling his Gangster Black Caddy, Harley or Monster 4x4! **Closed on Fridays**

Joe was great. I took my 1952 Model 62 Cadillac into his shop after another mechanic had let the car sit in his yard for over a year. The car hadn't been running for at least 12 years. Joe brought the car back to life, and it didn't cost a fortune. We didn't get into restoration work, but he did everything necessary to have the car run safely so I could sell it. He was honest, knowledgeable, and reasonable. I highly recommend Joe.

Joe is by far the best mechanic I've ever been to. He does great work, is honest and will only do work that is necessary. He also charges for parts at cost and is always looking for ways to save the you money when possible. For example, when my F250 needed a new transmission, he was able to find one used one that saved me many hundreds of dollars. I have been taking my vehicles there for almost ten years now and Joe has always exceeded my expectations.

★★★★★ 5.0 KING ARTHUR USA · Jun 2019

Joe is honest and a great mechanic He helps people I would recommend him. He can work on any car from old bangers to Porsche. And taxis too Joe replaced my water pump and timing belt. He replaced my clutch and flywheel on my Subaru forester. He uses genuine Japanese parts on my car. Not cheap China I was given a lifetime guarantee on my clutch. You don't pay for a fancy blond secretary or for the office you pay for his knowledge. His place is outdoors and real. I would recommend going down there face to face. He works 9am to 5...lunch 12 30 1 30 Monday to Thursday... Been there for over 35 years.
