Chuck and his team at Barnes saved the day when my vehicle broke down late on a Saturday. After hours tow and repairs completed with OEM parts in a reasonable time. Good realistic updates on estimated time to have my vehicle repaired.
Shop is always in pristine condition. Mechanics knowledgeable and excellent diagnosticians. Communication throughout the process of repairs and upgrades was much appreciated. My 65 chevelle has never run better
I contacted Barnes automotive to replace the mufflers on my 2019 corvette. From the start everyone at Barnes was very professional, from the schedule to the actual work. When I picked up the car the job was done to perfection and the car was clean and running great. I would recommend them to everyone for any type of repairs.
Had a great experience with Barnes.
Brought in my 2020 Sierra 3500 HD for a fuel tank upgrade from 26 gal. to a 62 gal. capacity. They ordered the tank and the install went great. I highly recommend using them for all your automotive needs.
I worked with Chuck. He is very knowledgeable and helpful.
Chuck/Doug and the team are a great team to work with for a professional job. It was performed in a timely fashion with a reasonable price. My husband can't thank them enough for the great job they did. If you want work performed by knowledgeable people who are honest and hardworking go to Barnes Automotive.
Very straightforward, explained well everything, and were very courteous. Also gave me a ride to and from their location. I was just passing through the area and needed fast repairs (had only 3 days) and found the auto repair shop listed on AAA. I really appreciate the great work and solid customer service. I would definitely use their services again if I'm in the area and need it.
I dealt with Chuck Barnes directly, who is the owner of the business. He did an excellent job in diagnosing the ongoing issues related to my Classic Muscle Car (1972 Buick GS).
All necessary repairs were completed and my car now runs well without any issues.
Chuck and co were helpful, direct, and presented options with costs. It’s hard to find a trustworthy and reasonably priced mechanic but Barnes got a loyal and future returning customer yesterday. Thank you.
We needed the air conditioning fixed in our car. It wound up needing a new compressor. The people there were very nice and explained everything. The price was very reasonable. And I would definitely go back there again. I highly recommend this place to anybody. They are professionals and love what they do.
My tire pressure light came on and I could hear a hissing sound coming from my rear driver's side tire. I was on a time crunch as my kids had to be picked up from camp in 3 hours. I stopped by and the gentleman was able to get me in and fix my tire. I was in and out in less than 40 min. The pricing was very reasonable. Totally recommend.
I took my 2006 GTO in for an inspection and some other minor repairs and I have to say this is the shop to go to, the work they do is second to none and the customer service is top notch. They treat the cars they work on better than most doctors treat patients. If you want your car well taken care of this is the place to go.
Awesome experience!!! Chuck and his team went the extra mile in going through the Corvette I had purchased from North Shore Classics and performed the little work it needed with attention to detail. Thanks for taking care of the oil pan leak and fixing the AC. I appreciate all your efforts. Will definitely bring my cars there from now on.
Barnes's owner was great. Brought in my 69 Corvette to have a throttle cable put in. There team found it was a gas pedal issue and some adjustments. They did it in a day, had car bake next day. Works great. Thanks Chuck, will diffinitly bring car back. Thanks again, Dan Frelk
Called to have my work vehicle pulled out of some snow I ended up trapped in. Chuck arrived and was professional and pleasant through then entire experience. Pricing was fair and they were there in half the time any other company told me. Highly recommended.
Chuck Barnes and his staff are likely the most knowledgeable guys in the Midwest for classic cars. This was my first classic purchase of a 1967 Barracuda. Though the car was in good shape, Chuck brought it up to a completely new level. The original purchase from North Shore Classics and now having Chuck do his magic made it so seamless and a great buying experience.
I'm not sure why there are so many one star reviews - perhaps disgruntled former employees? I have had nothing but excellent service at Barnes Automotive for many years. I highly recommend Chuck and his crew for all aspects of automobile care and maintenance. They also specialize in restoring classic cars, so you'll see some interesting ones in their lot.
