If you want your car to sit here for weeks, months and sometimes years, then this is the place for you. Don't worry about calling TJ, he won't answer the phone nor call you back. I was hired here to help TJ, the owner, to get him caught up on work. For there is vehicles that have been sitting there for 2+ years. I was promised a raise after 90 days, contingent upon my hiring. Well, when it's only you, and TJ doesn't show up till 10-11 am, it's hard to get your daily workload done, yet alone get caught up on months worth of backlogged repairs rotting in the back parking lot. When he did work, if he managed to stay in the shop for 2 hours, it was a miracle. Great Technician, when he worked, but literally was a handful of times in my 3 months of working there.
After he depleted the shop's payroll account to cover his personal home's newest addition. I was laid off because he couldn't pay me. I have a family. He left me hi and dry without days notice or severance. His customer base diminished from all the plentiful fleet of cars from local farms, because people are sick of leavIng there vehicles for weeks and weeks with no follow up and no call backs. So it's no wonder. I was shorted paychecks half dozen times. Paid me with a gift card once, lol, and always had an excuse for why his business was failing, unaware it was his own fault. Yes, I am a disgruntled employee, who was promised a fruitful future with the company, only to fall short because the owner couldn't run a marathon let alone a businesss. Don't take your car here.
The only person in this facility that is genuine, knows what he is doing, and is a good man, is Lynden, that TJ takes advantage of. Whom he doesn't pay, and Lynden helps where he can from kindness of his heart in exchange for small space to work on his classic restorations.
