Jim and Danny are my go-to guys for any automotive needs! This establishment is centered around excellent customer service with smart and knowledgeable technicians. We were introduced to them through the folks who sold us our house. They had been using them for years so we took their advice and check them out. I have no problems sending my wife to drop the vehicle off at the shop and know that she will not be taken advantage of. There is no need to worry about paying for unnecessary repairs for parts. they do an excellent job of letting you know what the problems are and what the priorities of work should be to keep you safe. This is the only place in town I bring my vehicles. Be sure to stop in and visit with Danny and Jim and meet their large bobtail cat!

For those of you with more heavy duty applications, like high horsepower setups or towing rigs, the stock converter may not be enough. At A-Ford-Able Auto Repair & Tire Service in St Augustine, FL, we can help with that.
