About Drag-in Auto

Located at 4063 8th Ave S, St. Petersburg, FL 33711, Drag-in Auto operates as a diesel repair shop serving St. Petersburg in Florida.

Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as auto repair shop, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
In St. Petersburg, shops are busiest on Monday mornings and before holiday weekends, so a mid-week appointment gets a car seen faster. Labor rates across Florida vary by neighborhood and by shop type, from small independents to dealership service bays, and mobile mechanics now cover many routine jobs in the driveway. Before authorizing a repair, ask for the estimate in writing, whether the shop warranties parts and labor (12 months / 12,000 miles is common, some offer more), and whether it can provide a loaner or a shuttle. Check the listing for hours, the makes the shop works on and its Google rating, then call ahead, since walk-in capacity is limited at smaller shops.
The business lists hours on 5 days of the week. Typical hours are 8 am–5 pm. It is closed on Saturday, Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Marshall is a great mechanic and shop owner. I drove down to St. Pete from Palm Harbor to have some a/c work done at his shop. Gave me realistic expectations and set a timeline that he was able to stick to and in budget provided. Even gave me a follow up call to check in after pickup making sure all was well, adding to the overall experience. Definitely someone to recommend.!

Finally a trustworthy mechanic that is reasonable. He has always told me when to expect my vehicles back and how much it would cost. I am so happy he is in St. Petersburg. Even though I would drive out of my way to get this kind of service. I have a customized Ford 350 and my wife has a Toyota Sequoia. We are thrilled with Marshal and we recommend him to everyone. Sooo, I had a major problem with my 2019 Ford Transit that required my catalytic converters and both of the AC systems in my converted RV/mobile office to be replaced. A major expense and a major repair that caught me by surprise. Marshal quoted the repairs and gave me an approximate time to expect my van back. The reality of the project was more than he expected also. His suppliers quoted him one price and expected parts delivery but could not deliver. The price for the parts was more than 4 times what they quoted and because of Ford’s changes in model production the time for the project was more than 4 times the estimated time for the work. Marshal stood by his original estimate even though it cost him much more than expected. I could not live with putting all of that on him. I paid for the parts but he refused to ch

Been going to Josh @ Drag-In Auto for years - his work is always fantastic. He gives you a clear cut and straightforward explanation and answer, takes the time to understand the issue and does whatever he can to provide the highest level of service he can. Hes the only mechanic I go to.
