Beverly Hills looses an iconic Automobile Repair Shop: Al Grimmett & Sons

 Al Grimmett & Sons closed its door on Little Santa Monica Blvd; they have been at the same location for over 50 years. How many Car repair shops can boast of 5star ratings on Yelp? Check it this link http://www.yelp.com/biz/al-grimmett-and-sons-automobile-shop-beverly-hills

The last honest Automobile repair shop in the area. John, Louie and company have lost the parking space where they were staging the cars waiting to be repaired and the ones they finished repairing. When you walked into the waiting area you were greeted by the pictures of Hollywood’s greats for the past 50 plus years. How often do you know that people award Automobile Repair shops as the best in Beverly Hills via the Patch. (http://beverlyhills.patch.com/listings/al-grimmett-sons-automobile-shop )

My car needed a major engine seal repair and I was one of the last customers they helped. They will leave a void in the Beverly Hill’s locals heart as well as their pocket books will be lighter the next time they go somewhere else to get their cars fixed.

I have never written about Honest Car Repair shops before, because they are such a rare find. Look at the activity on the Internet about Al Grimmett & Sons:   http://beverly-hills.californiapath.com/c-177393.htm  . This Blog was way overdue!

This tribute ends with an upside; one community’s loss is another community’s gain. John Grimmett joined forces with another Automobile Shop and they opened another Repair Shop in West Los Angeles. (Future blog to follow)
