Jay's Autoworld

Last week, we said goodbye to a very special member of the Jay’s Autoworld family.

After 3 years of faithfully serving as our shop cat and self-appointed Head of Public Affairs, Seymour crossed the rainbow bridge. Whether he was greeting customers at the front door, supervising technicians in the shop, attending meetings he wasn’t invited to, or finding the warmest place in the building for a nap, Seymour always made his presence known.

In just three short years, he became a favorite of customers, employees, and visitors alike. Many people stopped by to see him, give him a few pets, and check in on what he was up to. He brought a lot of smiles to our shop and became a part of what made Jay’s Autoworld feel like home.

While the office is a little quieter now and our quality control department has lost its most dedicated inspector, his legacy will live on here. His favorite little chicken is missing its cuddle buddy, too.

Thank you to everyone who loved Seymour and made him feel special over the years.

Rest easy, buddy. You’ll always be our Head of Public Affairs. ❤️🐾

Last weekend was a special celebration honoring our office manager, Tanna, as her year serving as the American Legion Auxiliary State President is coming to an end soon. We are incredibly thankful for everything she has done for our community and for the Auxiliary over the years. It’s truly been a lifelong passion for her, and the impact she has made does not go unnoticed.

The event brought people from all over the state into our community, and it was great to see so many people come together for such a meaningful occasion.

We were also proud to see Brent, one of our body shop technicians, helping make the night even more memorable by performing with his band, The Brent & Will Show. They did an amazing job and played some great music throughout the evening.

Brent will also be playing with his full band this Sunday at the Sullivan County Park Lake starting at 8 PM.

Very thankful to have such dedicated and talented people as part of our team and community.

Chris and Tim had a great time stopping by WTWO to sit down with Julie and talk about how quickly technology is changing in the automobile industry and why it’s so important for shops to stay up to date with the latest repair procedures, equipment, and training to help keep customers safe.

They also had the opportunity to talk about the importance of giving back to the community that has supported their family business for over 40 years and why supporting local communities continues to mean so much to them.

Thank you to Julie and the WTWO team for having us on. We truly appreciate the opportunity and had a great time!

Jay’s Auto World stopped by Good Day Live to share more about their family-owned business that has been serving the Wabash Valley for more than 40 years. The team talked about their auto body colli…

Another great soccer season in the books! ⚽️

Chris had the opportunity to help coach this awesome group of kids while Jay’s Autoworld proudly sponsored the team. The kids even gave themselves the nickname “The Vroom Vrooms”which seemed pretty fitting for our crew. 🚗💨

From learning the game to building teamwork and confidence, this team had an amazing season and, most importantly, a lot of fun along the way. We’re proud to support local youth sports and thankful for the families and community that continue to support local businesses like ours.

Great season, Vroom Vrooms! 🏆

A fun throwback from 2011!
During a school project, students were asked to create a newspaper advertisement for a local business… and 6-year-old Chris chose Jay’s Autoworld.

Looking back now, it’s pretty special to see how much the family business already meant to him at such a young age. From drawing ads for the shop as a kid to working in the business today, some things never change.

Three years ago, this building—the one that started it all—was lost in the tornado that changed Sullivan forever. Even though we’ve been at our current location since 2003, it’s still tough to see a place with so much history gone.

What stood out most then—and still does today—is how this community comes together and takes care of one another. It’s just one more reason we’re proud to call Sullivan home.
