April 1, 2022

John Foxworth wants to help people who need fast turnaround services to get them same-day.

April 1, 2022—John Foxworth wants people to know he’s there when they need him. 

His auto shop, Small Town Auto Repair, focuses on making quick turnaround repairs—oil changes, tuneups, suspension work, brakes and fuel pump—that can be done the same day for people in a bind.

He says he opened his shop to serve his community and provide people greater customer service when it comes to vehicle repair.

"A lot of the people that come in here and say that there's a waiting time on even an oil change or anything like that," Foxworthy told California Democrat. "I keep enough schedule between my books and appointments where if you come in with a minor headlight change, oil change, brake job—I'll be able to fix you up the same day."
