I recently took a Pontiac 400 block to them after the original cast crank snapped. While the damage to the main journals was too great to save the block I know they did everything they could to save it. I left with a sense of peace that if the block could not be saved by them, then no one could. I am thankful for their efforts and knowledge moving forward.

I'm a do it yourself kind of guy and usually prefer working on my cars myself if I can help it, however when I found this shop I felt they not only know what they are doing but are also good at explaining what they need to do and why, finding a shop that I feel comfortable leaving my car with has been a blessing as it saves me time which ultimately saves me money. I have since gone back with all kinds of projects from brakes to engine rebuilds and they've done a great job at everything I've thrown at them. I would highly recommend this shop especially to people who are familiar with and love their vehicles and want a place they can feel comfortable leaving their babies at and come check on the progress as the project comes along.

I first went to T&P in late 1993 because I needed an engine in my '67 Impala rebuilt but I wanted…read moreto learn and do the work myself without making expensive mistakes under the watchful eye of a guy who knows. I was referred to Barney and he let me use the corner of his shop over the course of a year in my spare time. Oh yeah, I learned a few (semi-expensive) lessons but he never gave me grief and helped me out and I sincerely appreciate that. He is definitely a standup guy. I moved to Austin a year later and haven't been back since but I have continued to refer the occasional person there if they live in the San Antonio area and need a machine shop. If you're a regular guy who wants to hotrod the engine in your old car, Barney can do it for you. If you walk in the shop you can tell just by looking at the equipment that they are serious about the work they do. It may look messy and sloppy with parts lying around, but while I was there over the course of the year I watched the other shop employees and they were meticulous about the work they did, always re-checking measurements for accuracy. A machine shop doesn't stay in business long if their work product is crap and they were always busy, even on Saturdays. Kinda tells you something, doesn't it? He knows how to build a motor (ask him about the 389 Poncho) and he won't sell you services you don't need for your intended use (you don't need a forged crank for a daily driver, etc). I'm doing another engine build now after 25 years for an El Camino (383 stroker) and trying to find a machine shop in Austin that I can trust as much as I trusted Barney. Unfortunately, he's just a bit too far away for me to haul everything down there. :-(

He recently started working at the end of 2025 to now 2026. He believes in Quality Product that he produces, no shortcuts! He used to have his own shop in Cedar Creek at Bastrop called "Jim's Motor Works Auto Machine Shop" he is open minded about anything that has got to do with repairing vehicles, he did an engine overhaul to a 1971 Mustang, and and others. Open minded, great team, excellent service, great people, and great asking for advice especially when a person knows what is doing! Danny is very blessed to have, Jim.

I explained to them I was not a mechanic and this was my first time doing such a project. I was…read morehoping to be counseled and guided. Took bare block in to get bored and surfaced. Told them I was waiting for bore diameter to order new performance pistons. "Danny" said "we can order them for you and save you some bucks". Great...but I was NOT consulted on pistons selected. Piston parts numbers showed $200 for set of Summit pistons that was marked up $100 on bill. Crank was to be polished but was told new crank would be cheaper. Bill still showed crank polish for $300. Was told it was for my benefit to avoid tax. I was not advised on crank selection. My short block turned into a long block. Was told to bring in my heads for installation. Purchased them already surfaced. Guess who got charged $300 per head to be surfaced on top of valve job for $250...not 1 call for authorization. I found this when I went in days before pick up. A $900 estimate ended up at $3000. Mission Auto Parts and Machine Shop should be last place anyone should go.

I met Raul a few years ago when he was Service Manager at a local dealership and instantly became…read moreimpressed with his knowledge, passion and trustworthiness. The prices were fair and the work was good, and despite my natural misgivings I grew to trust the dealership to maintain my 2008 VW Passat. Having a German car nearing 100k miles I understand there will be expensive repairs and maintenance, so when the latest issue popped up I went in to the dealer looking for him. I was informed that he was no longer there, and they didn't know (or wouldn't say) where he had gone. Needless to say my experience there reverted back to the typical "Stealership" treatment, with a smarmy service writer who didn't listen to me at all, and then recommended thousands of $$$ of repairs that wouldn't have even addressed my car's needs. Not fun. Through some sleuthing I discovered Raul had opened his own shop recently, and immediately retrieved my car from the dealership and limped it over to him at DasAutoShopTX. He listened carefully, explained the likely culprits, and recommended the proper repairs and necessary scheduled maintenance items (and warned me on a few others that would be needed in the near future). Raul did the job for far less than the dealer was quoting, without all the invoice-padding and unnecessary BS they were recommending, and my 100k-mile car runs as good as new (maybe even better!). He took time to explain the details of the work to me, and we had a very nice conversation as he showed me around the shop. I will never take my car to anyone else. Raul is a great guy who also knows about all there is to know about VWs and Audis, prices his work fairly, and clearly cares about developing long-term relationships with his customers instead of bilking them for every penny each time they bring their car in. I hesitated to write this review, as it's nice having "my little secret" for this type of thing, but I really want Raul's new independent garage to be successful, and that requires customers. So take your VW or Audi there! You will not regret it!
