Our Story

Our journey began in 1991 when James's father started the business in a one-bay shop. Over the years, the business grew, moving to a three-bay shop before finally establishing our current location in 1997. However, in 2011, a devastating tornado struck Joplin, destroying our shop. But we didn't let that stop us. We rebuilt from the ground up, determined to continue our quality service. This resilience is a testament to our commitment to our community and our customers.

Our Values

At Ol' Truck Repair, we believe in the importance of family, hard work, and integrity. James's upbringing in the business instilled a passion for heavy-duty repairs and a commitment to excellence. When the opportunity arose to take over the family business, James and Michelle seized it, determined to uphold the values instilled by James's father. Our shop is built on a foundation of honesty, integrity, and putting our customers first.
