Day 1, Saturday, of a four week road trip, we drove from SoCal to Pleasanton, CA and heard a clicking sound coming from the rear end once we were off the freeway and could hear again. Since we were picking up our caravan partner and heading north, we needed to find a mechanic in NorCal, along our route and nearby. We used the VanAlert app (must have!) and found Westy World in Chico. I called the number (Saturday, remember?) to leave a hopeful message that they may be able to squeeze us in on Monday for a look-see. I couldn't leave a message because Brian answered! As we discussed the issue, Brian offered to stop-by Pleasanton on SUNDAY, after a nearby Van drop-off. We met at a roadside parking lot and Brian crawled under the van to find and definitively diagnose a broken axel. If this was the end of the story, I am sure you would agree that this is a once in a lifetime automotive and humanitarian experience. It has had such a profound impact on us that we use it as the measure of the Golden Rule - we try to treat others the way Brian treated us. But the story goes on. From the parking lot Brian rallied his team back in Chico to set up an appointment on Monday to repair our axel. We are pretty sure that Westy World was not keeping a time slot open for that Monday to address our emergency. So all the other projects must have been put on hold to make our emergency their emergency. As we agreed in the parking lot on Sunday, we covered the time and expense for Kyle to DRIVE FROM CHICO TO REDDING AND BACK on Monday morning to pick up the replacement axel. When we rolled into Chico Kyle jacked up our '87 GL and completed the repair before we could finish out lunch. Everyone was mellow, untroubled, kind and very knowledgeable. What a great mindset to calm us in our moment of flexing. After our trip we checked in with our local mechanic, who verified two things: the parts used (from Burley Motosports) were the best available, and Westy World charged us as though this was a regularly scheduled appointment - no emergency premium! It is an honor to have had this experience and to have Kyle and Brian in our world. Thank you both and everyone else at Westy World that was affected by our incursion.

What that tells me is some other shops are "too young" and won't work on anything unless it plugs into a computer. They are very knowledgable, honest, reliable and on time.

If you are looking for a mechanic you can trust in Chico, you have found it. I'm very pleased and he will get my business not just for the old car, but for my brand new truck.

However, once you enter the driveway and see the plethora of classic cars and hot rods, you will know you are in the right place. I had some suspension work done on my VW Jetta (lowering springs, new shocks). While the specialty is mainly classic automobiles, the owner Jeff is happy to work on pretty much anything. The service is straight forward and honest, price is fair, and if you have any interest in the classics this is the place to be as the owner is a walking encyclopedia of classic rides. Even if you aren't really into classic cars you may leave this place an enthusiast, beware Jeff's enthusiasm is contagious and you may find yourself making plans for building a custom Model-A Ford with a fuel injected engine for your daily commute. Nor-Cal Rod's and Rides' specializes in general repair, body work, customization (as in my case) and full blown restoration's. I just picked up a used Audi S5 and am looking forward to getting my transmission and differential service done here! If you love your car, you will love this place, its a gearheads paradise.
