John's Bascom Automotive is fully family owned and operated, and has been since the very beginning. John Rockafellow started the business in 1972 when he purchased a Chevron gas station, right at the corner of Stokes Street and South Bascom, where there it remains to this day. His son, Mike, worked at his service station on and off during the 80s, to later return in 1992 to work full time. These days John and Mike share responsibility in the day to day operations of the business. Both John and Mike currently hold Smog Licenses, and hold multiple ASE certifications. They both split their time between running the business, and working on vehicles. John has a long history in the automotive field.

Just called the shop and spoke to Mike (John's son) wanted to charge me $180 just to look at the car. Not an honest or nice guy in my opinion.
