History
William Olney purchased Jimmies in 1972. Williams son's, Rick and
Ed, joined the business in 1974. Rick and Ed now are now Mangers
and the Future Owners of Jimmies. Jason and Casey started working
for the family in 1993 and 1995 respectively. They each started
in tire repair and helpers around the shop and have progressed to,
Jason: light and heavy duty driver and Casey: dispatcher and light
and heavy duty driver. Their respect has been well deserved because
of their "Gitter Done!" Attitude. Lauri and Sally are
deep in the bunker handling the Accounting, Payroll and pesky salesman.
Facilities
The original building had two mechanics hoists. This building was
replaced in 1988 with a larger (108' x 75') building, which now
has 3 truck hoists and 4 car hoists. In 1992 Jimmies went to a Computerized
Dispatch Towing System, (CDTS), to insure prompt and accurate service.
In the fall of 2003 the Tow Truck Barn was built to house our increasing
fleet of Tow Truck Wreckers.
We also host our annual employee Dance & Christmas party
in the big Tow Truck Barn. It's Available For Rent. It will hold
500 of your closest cousins, with band and dance floor. Hee Haw!
Call for your next MIS - NACAR Family Reunion. Ample Parking!
