Family Bonds Woven Through Generations

If you have ever visited Wilmot Auto Service, you have probably met one of the Garwoods.

Harmon S. Garwood would be the one that started the business back in 1951. Harm and Kathryn had six children. In 1951 the Wilmot Gas Station came up for sale for $3,500, and he bought it on a land contract for $1.00 down. His wife Kathryn cried when she saw it. She was not ready to own a gas station and auto repair shop. At first, they sold gas for 26.5 cents per gallon. In 1961, Harm bought the corner of Hwy C and Hwy W and built the new Wilmot Auto Service.

We are now in our 3rd generation of keeping you safe on the road. We enjoy taking care of you and your vehicle. We listen to your needs and concerns with your vehicle and we promise to give you the best products and customer service available.
