About Company

Surrounded in the back by stands of virgin white oak trees and bordered in the front by one of the areas most beautiful housing developments, our ultra modern hi tech salvage yard encompasses 28 acres of completely environmentally clean land. Our incredible 32,000 square foot warehouse holds more quality recycled parts than any other in Northwest Ohio, Southeast Michigan, or Northeast Indiana. No junkyard in the area has more late model salvage vehicles and what we don't have can easily be acquired through access to over 20,000 other salvage yards coast to coast. We have a fleet of modern delivery trucks and service an approximate 100 mile radius. We ship Fed -Ex worldwide and offer several differant warranty packages. Our staff is a well balanced mixture of youthful energy and valued wisdom of older veterans in the business. Proudly serving Maumee, Toledo, Bowling Green, Detroit and many more local Ohio areas.

I grew up with 12 brothers and sisters in a low income family so hard work and having a running car to get away from the madness was a necessity. I loved cars as a kid and studied auto body in high school. I had a passion for rebuilding and painting cars which started my career in body work.

In 1997 I was looking for a body shop to do business in and came across an old salvage yard that had a body shop in the back. I thought I could have the best of both worlds. A body shop and car parts all in the same location! The only problem was out of the few cars that were in the yard, the newest one was a 1987 Escort. The auto parts business had always intrigued me. I thought I could provide really good service because I knew the other side of the industry as the person who ordered parts for cars. As a body man, I was often frustrated with salvage yards saying that they had parts when they didn't and being told I'd have the part the following day and it would come a week later after I had to make several calls.

After careful consideration I decided that I would invest everything I had in buying cars to put at the yard l and would try the approach of providing really good and honest service to my customers. It was a scary because I mortgaged everything I had to try to get a business going. I answered the phones, sold the parts, and pulled the parts. My good service seemed to work because in a short period of time I was able to hire some staff to help. I grew very quickly and realized that I had a new passion.

After 3 years in the business I wanted to grow more and thought one sure fire way was to hire the top salvage yard salesperson in Northwest Ohio. He worked for my largest competitor that I had a lot of respect for so I felt uncomfortable attempting to hire him. I went to see my competitor one day when he told me that he wanted to retire and sell his business. I was so excited because I thought this could be my chance to hire Skip, the top salesman that I'd been waiting for. It then dawned on me to that perhaps I could buy the business. It was a great salvage yard. The owner was an amazing man that had dedicated his whole life to that yard. After several meetings with the owner Dave Truehaft, I purchased my competitor that I had admired for years and finally got to work with the legendary " Skip" (Michael Myers).

mission remains to provide quality parts, quick delivery, honest service and fair prices. This is accomplished with a great staff that understands the importance of customer service.
