Three decades of keeping Columbia's vehicles running — family-owned, community-rooted, always honest.
Godfrey's Auto Salvage & Dave's Repair has been a fixture on Alpine Road since the early 1990s. What started as a small salvage operation grew into a full-service repair shop — because the community kept asking us to do more, and we never said no.
Godfrey built this place on one principle: treat every customer's car like it's your own. That philosophy never changed. Today, the shop blends the salvage yard's deep parts inventory with Dave's team of certified mechanics to offer something most shops can't — a one-stop solution that actually saves you money.
We've repaired cars for three generations of Columbia families. We know Richland County roads, the summer heat, the potholes on Alpine — and we know what your vehicle actually needs versus what someone's trying to sell you.
Come see us. We'll give it to you straight.
Every decision we make in this shop comes back to these three things.
We live and work in Columbia. Our customers are our neighbors. We price accordingly and stand behind every job.
No estimate surprises. No mystery charges. We explain every line item and let you decide before we turn a single wrench.
Whether it's a $39 oil change or a full engine rebuild, we do it right the first time — or we make it right.
Stop by 2645 Alpine Road or give us a call. We'd love to earn your trust — one honest repair at a time.
