Founded in 1959 by Henry Michalka during the early days of Mercedes-Benz imports to the U.S., the business began as a single-man operation in uptown Whittier. After relocating due to damage from the 1972 earthquake, it has remained a family-owned and operated shop through three generations of leadership. After Henry’s retirement, the business was passed to technician Tom and his wife Connie, and later to Tony, who began working on German vehicles at age eighteen and has since led the shop’s modernization with advanced diagnostic tools and training. The team continues to emphasize factory-standard repairs, technician expertise, and customer-focused service.

Located at 8217 Washington Ave Unit C, the shop sits just a short distance from Whittier Boulevard and Painter Avenue, near the public artworks The Arch and Welcome Friends, and within a half-mile of Lydia Jackson Elementary School.
