Franklin Automotive & Restoration

"I need to Thank the owner of Franklin Automotive (Bruce). Did a brake job on my Ford Escape. Did an excellent job. Afterwards we had a strange noise. Took it back to Bruce. He immediately took the car in & found problem with the new brakes. He order a new set . Waited for delivery and replaced the faulty set. Stayed after his closing time to complete the replacement job. Knowingly we needed the car for work the next morning. All this was done at no charge because of the Franklin Auto guarantee. Thank you Bruce. You are the Best. Greg O."

"Working with Bruce at Franklin Automotive has always been a great experience. I drive a 2001 Dodge 2500 with a truck camper to the SW USA every winter & I have Franklin Automotive do any repairs needed before I leave. It's a good piece of mind knowing that any work done, will stand up to 6-7,000 miles that I accumulate while on my trip."

"Very honest and transparent service. Bruce was very helpful and knowledgeable. Found and fixed issues other mechanics could not. I am a repeat customer. Highly recommend!"

"Very trustworthy mechanics that take care of any issues quickly and give you confidence it’s being handled properly. Bruce and his team have saved me thousands. Have taken multiple vehicles there and will continue to do so."

"I have been taking my 1973 Pontiac GTO and my 1958 Chevy Impala to Bruce at Franklin Automotive for about 8 years now. I always have great dialogue with Bruce about maintenance, repairs, and enhancements I am planning and executing on my two classics. Right now, we are planning for a crate motor and 700R4 transmission for my Impala this coming winter. Bruce, along with Norm, do most of the classic car work at Franklin. Bruce is always realistic and fair with me about costs, timelines, and has vast experience with a broad array of classic cars from "The Big Three". Every time I go there, I see anywhere from 3-4 other classic cars on lifts or being worked on. And Bruce is not just stuck in the past with "old-think" about these classics. He's up on new-tech as well. He put a new Dakota Digital dash in my Impala and now we're discussing the benefits of EFI vs. carburetors, even though he might be the best carb guy around. Another thing I like about Bruce is that he owns two classic cars himself so he is a fellow enthusiast who shares with me the passion of the hobby I love so much. Finally, and this may not matter to some, but Bruce is deeply involved with the Lions Club and I respect the fact he volunteers in that capacity (I am not in that nor any such endeavor myself). There are a lot of wanna-bees out there who hack on old cars. Or high-end shops that charge an arm-and-a-leg. That's not here. Now go and get that dream car on Ebay Motors with confidence that: 1. It will have issues (that's just the hobby). 2. Bruce can handle them."
