MEET DAVE
At only fifteen years of age, Dave started fixing cars in southern Florida for a taxi cab and limo company in 1975. Besides throwing a paper route, its the only job he has ever done. He worked for many different dealerships, mostly European and Japanese imports, before opening his first shop in 1990. He started in an unheated storage shed and the business has grown into a state of the art facility with a 25 bay repair shop and full auto machine shop in Centerville.
Dave is an ASE master mechanic with over 35 years experience fixing cars and helping people. He holds a master machinist certificate and is a long standing member of ASA and AAA.
Growing up in Florida gave Dave a love of the ocean that has never waned. He loves to tournament fish and has done it all his life. The palm trees in front of the shop are his way of bringing a little bit of Florida to Utah.
