It all started in a small garage in my parents' backyard in Sugar Grove around 1979. With the help of my dad and friends Randy Frederick and Mike Sherrard, we started working on cars at night. I worked full time during the day and at night we would always have somebody's vehicle in for work. I married my wife, Linda, in 1984 and moved the business to our home in Russell. In 1989, I went to work for a Subaru dealership. Then, in 1994, Linda and I bought this business, formerly Frank's Autobody. It was a body shop/ inspection station owned by Jim and Kathy Frank. Soon after purchase, we added on to the building. For the next nine years, there were many long hours put in. The building we operate in now was built about 11 years ago . We added a body shop and a much larger mechanical side. We are now able to handle any job that comes through the doors. I am very proud of how this business has grown. I could have never done it without the support of my family. As I celebrate 29 years in business, I would like to thank some people that helped Linda and I get to where we are today. First of all, our parents, Bill and Betty Chase, Roger and Alice Lindell, my brothers, Mike and Brad Chase, and my friends Randy Frederick, John Chase, and Scott Morningstar. All of these people have been helping and supporting this place behind the scenes for the past 29 years.  Linda and I appreciate these years of patronage and we hope many more are to come from such a supporting group of people. We would also like to thank our wonderful customers who continue to support our small, local business.
