    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. :-(

Barney, our owner, came into the shop in 1979, and he's been building relationships with customers and solving problems ever since. Whether you're looking for performance upgrades, engine balancing, or maintenance upkeep, just come by and we'll work with you to get the job done right the first time. Just one visit, and you'll see why our customers have continued to come back to us for over four decades.

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.
