Mansfield Auto Specialties Incorporated

I'm an English professor, so when the car fails, what am I supposed to do -- lean over the hood and intone, "To start or not to start, that is the question"? Mike Sullivan at Mansfield Auto Specialties could have pulled the wool over my mechanically-ignorant, academic mind a hundred times. But instead he's become a friend and a God send. He only fixes what actually needs to be fixed -- he never embelleshes. He looks for the least expensive options. He explains things in a way that even a Ph.D. can understand. He takes the car at a moment's notice and accomodates my family's busy schedule. He's even said things like, "I could try to fix this, and charge you a mint, but it's really not worth it to you." I teach at a small, private college -- Mike has often said, "I know you're paid at the end of the month. Waith and pay me then!" The man is a prince and deserves to be recognized -- a professional mechanic and a professional human being!

Mike Sullivan is efficient and honest. One vacation, I left my Buick Regal with him to replace a clicking left front CV joint. When I returned there was no charge. He had fixed the clicking by duct taping the inside of a flexing hubcap.

I am a retired bus mechanic who knows his limits. Several times Mike diagpnosed a problem on my car- at no charge- that I was able to repair myself.

I called Mike to discuss an engine replacement and he said they really don't do motor work. The specialties listed here include engine rebuilding and should be corrected.
