James Wilson

Owner

Happy to be Home

  My wife and I were both raised in Clinton. We met while I was living in New York, and she was in Ecuador. After returning to Clinton to care for aging parents, we are using our extra time to serve the local community with unique skills accumulated around the world.

My Trade

    After the Clinton High School automotive classes piqued my interest, I got my start working in Jetter Hauling's repair shop when I was 16. That led me to the Scott Community College Diesel Technology program, graduating with honors in 1999. Since then, I have worked extensively as a fleet mechanic, with the majority of my career focused on electrical and electronic diagnostics.  Though I left the industry for a time, I worked hard to keep up with the field. 

The Name

    As a field technician, I always enjoyed working in the open.  Later as a lead technician, I enjoyed traveling to provide technical support between different shops.  When it came time to open my own business, I wanted a name that would remind me of my roots, both geographically and secularly.
