I have been taking my vehicles to CSE since 1997, and I can not praise the quality of work enough. CSE is a great shop that will handle any vehicle issues. They have worked on my personal cars, race cars, trailers, motorcycles, and even my boat. You need regular maintenance work, go to CSE. Custom exhaust, rust work, custom suspension work? Go to CSE. Need your race car scaled and set up, call CSE. Vinyl lettering for your car, truck, trailer, or mailbox, call CSE. Seriously, once you go, meet the guys, and experience the quality of their work, you will become a loyal customer like me.

Went to C.S.E to order the tire brand and size I wanted.The owner operator Bill Sherwood ordered the tires and they arrived that afternoon with very little waiting.State of the art equipment was used to mount and ground force balance the new tires.There was attention to detail with inflation,and lug torquing was completed for my car.There were no suprises with the billing,and I came in a few dollars less than the quoted price. The car 's ride has improved greatly. I would recomend C.S.E.

I've been going to CSE for car repairs and maintenance for about 7 years now. I own 6 cars of several makes & models (German, American, British) and the mechanics at CSE have been able to repair all of them in a competent manner. In addition, I have never had to take anything back to them because the repair was not done correctly. The owner, Bill Sherwood, is extremely knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. I have also been very impressed with his integrity...He has never suggested a repair that didn't need to be done. His mechanics are all top-quality, with Jim Garner's diagnosis skills being second to none. Overall, I would highly suggest and recommend CSE for any repairs/maintenance of your automobile. They are superior to any other shop I've used in the area, in terms of efficiency, competency, and integrity.
