Things are coming right along nicely, and we are SO excited! 🙌🏼 We’ve had a few questions about the upcoming move, so we wanted to share a little update!

YES! Our phone number will remain the same!

Nope! We plan on taking all of our current equipment with us to the new shop. The only thing changing is our location!

Today is truly a bittersweet day.

Today marks 6 years since I had the opportunity to reopen The Muffler Shop, and I couldn’t let the day pass without reflecting on how special that journey has been.

Today also happens to be the birthday of a legend, Joey Martins. On his birthday, Joey walked into the shop and spent the entire day helping me learn the ropes and teaching me everything he could. He didn’t even tell me it was his birthday until the end of the day. That simple act says so much about the kind of person Joey was.

We will forever be grateful for the knowledge, lessons, friendship, and love Joey gave us. His impact on us and on so many others will never be forgotten.

And to every single customer who has trusted us with your vehicle over these past six years — THANK YOU! Your support, trust, and continued business mean more to us than you know.

Six years later, we’re still here, still working hard, and still incredibly grateful for the opportunity to do what we love.

Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts! ❤️

We’ve got some exciting news to share!

We’ve officially purchased land and will be building our forever home! We’re planning to break ground in just a few weeks and will be moving to Junction City, KY—just off Hwy 127, next to Auto Connection and only about 4 minutes from Walmart in Danville.

We’re truly feeling blessed and grateful for this opportunity.

First, we want to thank all of our customers for your continued business and support. Because of you, we’ve stayed booked out and are able to keep growing—we don’t take that for granted.

While we’re still navigating the loss of Joey Martin, we carry him with us every day. We hope to make him proud as we continue his legacy and the muffler shop business. None of this would be possible without the patience, knowledge, and love he shared with us.

A big thank you as well to Clint Curtis and the Curtis family for going out of their way to support our dream, we truly appreciate your kindness and support.

And lastly, thank you to my wife and family for everything you do day in and day out. I couldn’t do this without you.

As always, we’re incredibly thankful for our community and excited for this next chapter.
