Trusted Auto & Towing Experts Since 1939

Every great business starts with a vision. Ours began with a hardworking couple, a small building, and a belief that dedication and integrity could build something lasting.

On May 9, 1939, Woodrow F. Knollinger and his wife, Virginia, turned their dream into reality by opening a small business on National Road in Triadelphia. What started as a modest husband-and-wife operation was built on quality workmanship, trust, and a commitment to serving their community. The goal was simple: create a business that would grow alongside their family—and serve generations to come.

Legacy Built Through Generations of Automotive Excellence

As demand grew, so did the business. Within just a few years, the original single building expanded into multiple facilities, and the operation grew from two people into a trusted employer within the region.

On July 7, 1971, another milestone was reached when
Woodrow F. Knollinger was awarded one of the first Jeep dealerships, further cementing the company's place in automotive and towing history.
