Rare opportunity to acquire a highly profitable, long-standing auto repair business generating over $300K in seller earnings with nearly half a century of trusted community presence. This is a true “cash-flow first” opportunity with strong systems, loyal customers, and significant upside for a growth-minded operator.
This well-established automotive repair shop, located near Kerrville, Texas, has built a reputation as the go-to solution for complex diagnostics and transmission work that other shops can’t handle. Operating for over 45 years, the business has evolved into a full-service repair center offering general automotive repair, transmission replacement, ADAS (driver assist) calibrations, and alignments, making it one of the most capable shops in its local market.
Key Financial Highlights
- Annual Revenue: $1.18M with strong and stable top-line performance
- SDE: $321,577 (27.1% margin)
- SDE Growth: +25.9% from 2023 to 2025 (clear upward trend)
- Gross Margins: Consistently strong at ~58%+ across all years
Operational Overview
The business operates Monday–Friday (8AM–5PM) with a well-trained team of 6 full-time employees, including a highly capable service manager who handles ~90% of customer intake and sales. The shop features 7 service bays but is currently underutilized with only 3 technicians, creating immediate capacity for expansion.
Revenue is diversified across general repair (50%), transmission work (30%), and high-margin ADAS calibrations and alignments (20%), with ADAS services producing some of the highest hourly margins in the shop. The business runs on established systems including a POS platform, QuickBooks, and industry coaching tools that track KPIs and performance.
Notably, the shop generates 100% of its business organically through word-of-mouth and referrals, no paid marketing, highlighting both strong brand equity and untapped growth potential.
Reason for Sale
The owner is retiring after a long and successful career and is seeking the right buyer to continue the legacy.
Growth Opportunities
- Add technicians to utilize all 7 bays and increase revenue capacity
- Implement digital marketing (currently zero spend) to drive new customer flow
- Expand ADAS services and partnerships with additional body shops
- Hire an additional service writer to increase throughput and sales conversion

This opportunity is ideal for an operator or investor seeking a highly profitable, recession-resistant business with strong systems already in place.
