John rebuilt the carburetor on my classic GTO and it runs perfectly. I knew I was in the right spot seeing many other classic muscle cars at his shop being serviced. I also knew I was at the right place after seeing the meticulous manner in which he and his team maintain the shop. In addition, he referred me to Linwood Piper of Piperformance who took care of a small bit of damage to my car’s paint. I’ll certainly be bringing my GTO and other cars to him going forward. Thanks John!!
This is a well-run shop. It's not easy being in business and dealing with a complicated public. Far less to be doing the same thing for more than 40 years. This shop is humble and ordinarily looking from the outside. The work area is exceptionally clean, with some powerful and state-of-the art tools. There are some very skilled mechanics here who can re-build a classic car for you, or machine an engine, or do basic auto repair and maintenance. I was well-treated with a difficult car situation and these folks excelled- all of... read more
I have known John West as long as I have been alive. I remember in the 70's he was one of a few who could work on Austin Healey and get it done right. In the 70's he was building and racing high performance motors and drag racing cars that others could only dream about. John has a talent of identifying issues and tuning high performance motors as well as restoring classics since i have known him. He was a master trained mechanic on Toyota and other imports prior to opening his own shop in early 70's. If you have a classic ge... read more
John fixed a major problem on my 1954 Olds. He was friendly, professional, and competent. Also the work was much more difficult than expected, yet he charged me a fair and reasonable price. Can't say enough good things about him. Will definitely use him again and highly recommend him.
These over exaggerated happy reveiws obviously written by someone in the business are all lies as this man is one only a mother can love. This guy is not a friendly or trustworthy as he is rude and tacky. Does not listen well (or speak well for that matter)and is only concerned his pockets.
This is the best auto repair shop I have ever been too. The shop is very clean and the staff and mechanics are professional. It was nice to have my car looked over without a long list of fixes. John West noted all the issues and conveyed to me which ones were necessary and which issues were minimal. They considered the age and high mileage of my car with the replacements needed and made their cost effect assessment on what was worth repairing. On top of their excellent and trustworthy service, their repairs are always done i... read more
I consider myself extremely lucky that I have found this business. This is the second time I have brought my car to John West Auto and have had a 5 star experience both times. And this is the second time that this business has saved me a lot of money by providing reliable, quality work at a decent price. If you are having any car work done I recommend going here. I had an oil change done at a Meineke near my house recently (purely because it was close and my car was overdue) After spending 40 mins there the woman at the desk... read more
Over the course of several weeks i discussed the work i needed performed on my classic car with John. The car was fully restored many years ago and had just been pulled from storage so needed some basic maintenance work performed. I discussed the work i needed performed with John and sent him pictures. This morning I had the car towed on a flatbed to his shop at the scheduled time to have the work performed. When I arrived it started to mist outside so I asked John if we could bring the car inside and talk through the list o... read more
John and his guys are solid, reliable, friendly, and they really know their cars! Whether it's a simple oil change for my daily driver or a full on engine and transmission build for my classic muscle car, you cannot go wrong here. The whole shop is clean, the mechanics work foreign and domestic cars with equal ease, and John cares if your car continues to run after it leaves his shop. When my friends and family need work done, I recommend only one shop, and they're still amazed at how good the service is! Expect to find a fu... read more
