Been dealing with them for more than a decade. Fred on the parts counter, Tom in the machine shop…read more Great folk to deal with. Prices are fair for a brick & mortar family owned shop. Fred has never let me down so far as getting what I need in a timely manor. Tom's work in the machine shop is first rate. If you're looking for fast & cheap... go someplace else. If you want things done right at a fair price... Tom's machine work is outstanding. Whether it's been a motor rebuild, reworking heads.... Tom's the man!

Never had a problem with Town Auto, they've been around for a very long time and there's a reason…read morefor it. Most of the older small family owned businesses in Waterbury have gone under. Matty is one of the best humans on the planet and his kid Fred is one of the best at what he does as well. Sure, their pricing is higher than you would find somewhere else but that also is a direct result of family owned small business trying to compete with the like of Napa, AAP, etc. These half ass crap reviews are from people who want things done their way 100% of the time and life doesn't work that way. Give Town Auto a shot and see how well tey treat you. I am in no way affiliated, employed or otherwise involved with Town Auto of Waterbury.

And, they have an engine dynamometer to break-in and test your engine before delivery. All of their equipment is accurate and well maintained and, more importantly, they know how to use them! I've had two engines built by Scott's shop: a 625 HP, 400 ci small block Chevy and an 875 HP, 615 ci tall deck big block Chevy. Both engines EXCEEDED my expectations for durability and power. And, both engines are still running strong to this day. Merkel's isn't the cheapest shop around but, good work ain't cheap and cheap work can't be good. Scott's work isn't good....it's GREAT!!!
