Well...... we are not firefighters, but we do save cats! Just not the ones stuck in trees.

This was a first for us. Customer comes by and says there is a cat stuck in her truck. Our team could hear it. It was stuck between the bed and fuel tank. After a little time, we finally got him out. The vehicle and cat are both ok. The cat was hurt a little and so far no one has claimed the cat. We are going to take him to the vet and get him fixed up. If no one claims him we may give him a cool name and make him our office mascot!

Stop by Summit City Auto, Diesel And Customs for all your automotive needs! Even if you have a cat stuck in your vehicle!

One of the best engines ever manufactured.

This Ford 300 Inline-Six is widely regarded as one of the greatest engines ever built, earning a legendary reputation for durability, torque, and unmatched reliability.

Introduced in 1965, the 300 cubic-inch inline-six was designed primarily for Ford trucks, vans, agricultural equipment, and commercial vehicles. Its long-stroke design and heavy-duty construction produced exceptional low-end torque, making it ideal for towing, hauling, and hard-working applications where dependability mattered most.

Built with a massive cast-iron block, seven main bearings, and an incredibly robust bottom end, the Ford 300 became famous for surviving extreme abuse and accumulating hundreds of thousands of miles with minimal maintenance. Fleet operators, farmers, contractors, and mechanics praised the engine for its simplicity, serviceability, and near-indestructible nature.

While never intended as a high-performance engine, the 300 developed a loyal following among enthusiasts who discovered its impressive strength and tuning potential. Turbocharged and performance-built versions have produced remarkable horsepower while retaining the engine's legendary toughness.

Even after decades of service, the Ford 300 remains one of the most respected inline-six engines in automotive history and a benchmark for long-lasting truck engine design.

“Simple. Reliable. Nearly indestructible. The Ford 300 earned its legend the hard way.”

We get calls all the time asking if we work on this or work on that.

Here is a comprehensive list of what we work on.

If you need things done out of the ordinary for local shops, like needing brakes done on a trailer, a John deere tractor or a backhoe. We can do it. If you need safety switches replaced on a man lift. We can do it. If you need an engine or transmission rebuild. We can do it.

According to my wife, the only thing we dont do is dishes, sweeping and cleaning!! 😁

But our automotive repair team is amazing at everything else!

Many people have asked, where did you get the inspiration for the shop name. Well, some friends of ours and us wanted to come up with a name that tied our shop to our little home town. Something we could be proud of and had meaning. We all came up with great ideas, but one of our friends thought about Aurora being the Summit City of the Ozarks. Once I researched it and read about it, I loved it!

So there ya'll go, a little history lesson and an answer to the question we get asked all the time!
