The owner, I guess, "Gordy" had my car for a total of 9 weeks. I asked for a new water pump install and shortening of my rear control arms. He insisted that he could install Car alarms and called someone else to come and do it. They totally ripped everything out under my dash and now my car does not start. He hawked me down all day while I was at work asking for money to buy parts and after that I was unable to reach him by phone. I believe he uses funds from 1 person car to start work on other cars. My car did not move for a total of 2 months. I had to call a tow truck and get my car towed back home when I drove it to the shop in the first place. I would not recommend going back to this place for anything. He is a good "slick talker" but a bad business owner. Not too sure of his mechanical abilities. I paid a total of $1000 and I had to get my car towed home.

Gordie has had my car for over a year.. very little work has been done and after sending it to the blast shop he left the 1966 mustang out in the weather.. he then cut out the floor pan and never replaced it.. he was paid 100% up front and refuses to give a refund or return phone calls.. Im having to call the police to get my car and parts back.. do not do business with Philip "Gordie" Gerber.. or his mother.. they are crooks.

kept my vehicle for a long time, when recieved vehicle, nothing had been done. had more damage than before going there. dead battery, paint damage. contract i signed was altered after the fact by the owner in favor of the shop without consent. gave money (thousands) and work wasnt completed at all. no refund offered or even considered by Merlins. worst experience in my automotive life.

They will act like they are cool and will not screw you over like a typical mechanic. But they do promise! Came for a simple job which cost me triple the amount.
