Built on Trust,
Driven by Craft

Mechanic and Body Shop Chinchilla isn't just another garage. We're a family-run operation in the heart of Birmingham, built on the belief that every driver deserves a mechanic they can count on—someone who tells you what you actually need, not what's easiest to sell.

From a single bay to a full-service shop, we've grown the same way: one honest repair at a time. When you pull into our lot on Cherry Avenue, you're not a ticket number. You're a neighbor.
