In 1958, Dave and Ruth Young purchased 8.4 acres of land from Ruth's father, Ralph Passmore, with a dream of some day starting their own business.

In January 1960, with $100 cash and $300 borrowed for an air compressor, a little piece of that dream became reality when they opened Young's Garage in the basement of their home. Dave worked the mechanical end of the business, doing repairs and state inspections, while Ruth picked up parts and scheduled appointments, using their freezer as a desk. Eleven years later, their dream was complete with the business incorporating and moving out of their home to 1022 Lenape Road.

The original steel section of the building measured 75' x 40' and was built by Jack Alexander. The fill for the garage came from the crossroads at Birmingham and Route 52 when the intersection was reconstructed, eliminating a steep incline.

The summer of 1979 expanded on the family-owned business with a new addition measuring 50' x 30' and Tim graduating from high school. Tim came to the business full time after graduation from ATC trade school in April of 1980. He joined his sisters, Beth and Sydney, who worked in the office after school and during the summer months to complete a second generation involved in Young's Garage, Inc.

In addition to repairing vehicles, Young's Garage houses a towing business with a fleet of 5 tow trucks. The color of the first owned tow truck was green before Dave started Young's Garage, with several blue and white lettered trucks throughout the years, to the present color of red with white lettering.

The year 1992 brought more changes with a second addition measuring 30' x 60' and the company computerizing. In 1993, the original stock room was moved and a new office was built. In August of 1994, Tim, being the second generation of Young's along with his wife Augie, who works in the office, committed to carrying on the dream. The future holds a third generation of Young's being groomed to take over the business in years to come.

We are proud to live and work in East Bradford Township promoting a policy of honesty, which Dave and Ruth started back in 1960 and is carried on to this very day.
