Expert Classic Car Repair & Service in Lacey, Olympia, Tumwater & JBLM Since 1972

Classic car repair requires a different skill set than needed for modern auto repair. Call it ‘old school capability’, Kohout’s Automotive & Alignment Center has been in business since 1972 and knows how to treat these old school classics.

Classic Car Oil Change & Lube

While oils and filter changes haven’t changed much in 50 years or more, classic car suspensions differ wildly from that of newer vehicles. Perhaps most importantly, old school suspensions don’t use sealed joints, and must be lubricated regularly. But not all auto repair shops are familiar with the correct way to do this, and that can result in destroyed joint boots which leads to water and debris in suspension joints. That’s bad. But the technicians at Kohout’s Automotive & Alignment Center are specially trained in the correct procedure for classic car chassis lubrication, giving you chassis lube peace of mind. We do classic car lube and oil right – the old school way.

Experienced Classic Car Engine Service & Repair

When it comes to points, condensers, rotors, distributor caps, timing lights and point-gappers, your classic car service and repair needs may leave most auto repair shops in a fog. Unique to our classic car customers, these needs require a specialized, old school approach from experienced technicians. Don’t get us wrong – we’re ‘new school’ experts, too. But while old school experience, talents and techniques have gotten pretty hard to find, they’re still alive here at Kohout’s.

I love this place - everyone is so nice and polite - AND - more importantly - they do the job that you took your car to them to do! They do not try to sell you on additional work that you didn't even ask for. They do just what they have to do - no more - no less. A pleasant change - RELIEF - from dealerships!!!! And - they stick to the price that they quoted you!!! In other words - they are honest!!!!

Called and made an appointment to have a front end aligned and a tire balancing. All went as planned and now my car rides smooth and true. Thanks guy's @ Kohout's, you've just earned my business from here on out.
