About
Ed Shelton started Virginia Automotive 33 years ago after being an automotive mechanic for 12 years. Ed was born and raised in Richmond. Virginia Automotive is a family business. Ed is married with 3 children and his son Brian is a mechanic in the Hopewell location. His brother Teddy is the manager in Hopewell and his two other brothers, Dennis and Ricky are mechanics in the Richmond shop. Ed was passionate about creating a business based on quality of repairs, trust in his recommendations and fair pricing and he has. Through two major downturns in the economy in the past 33 years he has built a business which has been servicing generations of families in the maintenance of their vehicles. But what sets Ed apart from other automotive repair businesses is the compassion he feels towards people. When a van full of girls trying to make their way to a dance competition broke down late on a Saturday, Ed stayed at the shop with his brother Ricky until midnight completing the repairs. They got the van back on the road and the girls came in 2nd in the competition. With two convenient locations, Richmond and Hopewell ,Virginia Automotive continues to apply their theory which is; honest, hard working efforts build loyal customers for a lifetime. Let us help you make the most of your hard working dollars and bring your vehicles to Virginia Automotive where you are not just another vehicle; you are our neighbor and friend.

We are very sorry to hear that you had an accident after leaving our shop. Your brakes worked fine and passed the Virginia State Inspection requirements. No adjustments were made to the brakes. We will be glad to take a look at them for you, if you are able to bring the car back to us. Please give us a call to set up a time, so we can check it out for you.

We are sorry that you are unhappy. The technichian found that the upper & lower ball joints would not pass on VA State inspection, not rear ball joints. He also recommended the wiper blades, because they were not cleaning the windshield properly. If you would like to come by, we will gladly check out your horn, to see why in is not working. Please let us know, if we can help you with any of this.
