Business description
<p>This auto repair shop, located in South Santa Clara County, was established in 1987. It is located at one of the busiest intersections in the city not far from the freeway. This 5-star rated shop attracted a loyal local following and several commercial accounts by going the extra mile with pickup and delivery and washing and detailing of customer vehicles. They perform everything from basic auto repair to classic car restoration. The shop is equipped with seven lifts and has a good equipment package. There is parking in the front and back of the building. The owner is ready to retire and wants to pass this opportunity on to someone who wants to own their own shop.</p>
