about us

our story

Jim and I opened Peto’s Car Magic in 1979 in Columbia Station, Ohio, with the simple idea of giving good, honest auto repair service at a fair price — don’t overcharge and don’t oversell.  Jim was a journeyman mechanic and enjoyed an excellent reputation in his field. Customers appreciated the concept and our business grew.

We relocated to our present location on Bagley Road a few years later and purchased Perfection Auto Body, making it a “one stop shop”….professional auto repair and body work all under one roof.  Our son, Jerry, joined us in the family business and learned from his dad the ins and outs of repairing cars. He has since taken over the operation of Peto’s and Perfection with enthusiasm and integrity.

Family owned and family operated, Peto’s Car Magic remains committed to giving our customers our best service at a fair and honest price.  Our values have not and will not change.

We have appreciated your business and look forward to serving you in the future.  We are fortunate to be able to call many of our customers our friends, and would be honored to count you among them.
