Dear Clients, Friends, and Community Members,

It has been my honor to humbly serve you as your local trustworthy repair shop for the past thirty years. Many of you came through the doors initially as skeptical clients and walked out as some of my closest friends. However, just as many times as my door has been open for you, it’s time I close it one last time as I venture into a new chapter of my life, retirement. The word seems strange to even put on paper, as I’m not sure what that will even entall. What I do know for sure is that the last year has morphed my spirit for what I do. When the NJMVC denied my 501c3, Kingdom Cars, dealer privileges to redistribute donated cars something inside my spirit morphed. The passion for what I did daily began to dwindle. When I was approached with an opportunity to sell the location I’ve called my “work home” I strongly entertained the idea and now it’s a reality. I have full confidence that the Lord will provide a new location for the car care clinic to operate and/or use those funds to His glory. All this to say, Rich’s Auto’s last day in business will be Friday August 12, 2022. I’d love the opportunity to tell each of you how much you’ve meant to me, but there’s just no words. I’m beyond grateful for each and every one of you. I will be preparing the building for the new owner from August 12 until August 31st, so please feel free to drop in until then. The new owner has proven to be a stand up man of integrity, however, he will not be doing any auto repair. Please visit our website for future auto repair recommendations.

Until the chapter closes, farewell my friends.

⚠️ Tear jerker warning from Kristie: ⚠️

A picture says a thousand words… it also can hold a lot of emotions. The picture on the top is my father as a young man in his mid 30’s placing his business sign to proudly display the opening of his new business with the help of his father. That was 30 years ago. My grandfather counseled, supported and trained my father in every way possible. He’s not with us today, physically, to celebrate this milestone achievement. Rather, I am. A female thriving in an automotive shop. Proudly learning from my father, in every way possible. Never lose sight of your dreams or forget who helped make them possible. Cheers to 30 years in business, Dad. Thank you Grampa for your love and support.

Integrity [ in-teg-ri-tee ]. 4 syllables. My walk of life. The code by which I've run my business. This past Saturday, May 7, 2022, marked 30 years in business as Rich's Automotive over here in Gillette. I've been honored to be a part of some families for over 3 generations. We've laughed (and even cried) together. From hooptie to hotrod, we've welcomed people from all different walks through our doors. Those same doors which birthed the nonprofit Kingdom Cars to help local struggling families with car repair. Thank you Long Hill Township, Berkeley Heights and surrounding towns for the outpouring of support all these years! Please take a moment to celebrate this outstanding achievement with us! We look forward to what's to come in the next 30 years.

After two years of managing to stay open during the pandemic, our turn has finally come. Due to CDC guidelines and the safety of our employees and customers we had to make the difficult decision to close for today May 2. Rest assured we are ambitiously hoping to reopen tomorrow at half staff after a deep disinfecting. Please call us directly if you need immediate assistance. We appreciate your concern and patience during this challenging time.
