Jim’s Auto Center

When you think of Fleetville, a few landmarks come to mind: the auction house, Mrs. A’s, Seamans’ Airport, and Jim’s Auto Center. Founded in the late 1960s, Jim’s Auto Center started as a small car repair shop in a barn on Jim’s parents’ property. Jim opened the shop after graduating from tech school, using it to maintain his growing school bus fleet and repair vehicles for his neighbors. And we can’t forget to build cars that he raced at local dirt tracks.

Today, Nichols Bus, Inc. carries on that same spirit of community service as your trusted neighborhood auto repair center. We offer reliable automotive services for both large vehicles and cars, ensuring your vehicle is always in excellent condition.
