Don't know what happened to my review on here but he called me cuz I had a listing wanting a motor for my 2005 jeep wrangler, he told me he is a scout that goes around and finds the things that people are looking for.... than he sold me a motor, lol, a motor that he said would fit into my jeep it does not. I spent over $1200 on it. He STILL states its the correct motor EXCEPT the wiring harness is wrong is ALL he says. I took to Findlay motors in Post Falls they said on my receipt this IS THE WRONG MOTOR. I took him to court and won 5,000 in small claims cause he never showed up. About 6 months ago he states to me he filed bankruptcy and that I should be getting my copy soon, I STILL HAVE YET TO RECEIVE THIS NOTICE. DONT KNOW IF THIS IS YET ANOTHER LIE OR...

It takes an outstanding experience for me to leave a review and I had to let everyone know that’s exactly what I experienced with Ian. We suddenly experienced a break down and while my wife and I were trying to push start the bike Ian introduces himself. He offered immediately to help, which isn’t anything out of the ordinary necessarily however Ian then went way above and beyond. He told me he owned a shop and wanted to help. He diagnosed the problem in the parking lot, he went to his truck and got the tools required to repair the problem, then when the bike needed a jump start went and bought cables to get us back on the road. Furthermore he offered to have a battery delivered and install it or load the bike up in his truck to save us the hassle of the tow truck and take it to his shop until a battery could be delivered. He then gave us the set of cables he bought just in case we needed them to get back home because I decided to risk it. All of us are looking for a great family owned business who does the right thing when no one is looking and exceeds expectations and I’m telling you this is the place to go! If he will do all this for a stranger then there is no question the quality service you will get as a customer! I made it home safe thanks to Ian and so will you.

I can't express enough gratitude for Ian. When our bike broke down at a gas station, Ian stopped to help us without hesitation. His kindness and expertise turned a stressful situation into a positive experience. He quickly diagnosed the issue and helped us get back on the road. It's rare to find such genuine and helpful people, and Ian truly went above and beyond. You're in great hands with Ian!

Ian is legit. Had a bushing for my gear shifter go out while I was at work. He came out within the hour with the part in-hand and had it working within 10 minutes. Will be coming to him to get some more work done.

Called in on Halloween day for repairs to my truck. Ian was able to get me in same day to start working on it. He gave me a call and said he ordered a part and my truck would be ready next day, which is great especially being a holiday. He called me the next day to come pick it up right on time. He went above and beyond for me and at a great price. I would highly recommend anyone to take their vehicle to him.
