The Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for Tharp’s Automotive and Sales on Thursday.
Tharp’s Automotive and Sales is a full-service auto repair center and pre-owned auto sales lot.
According to a release from the chamber, Tharp’s Automotive and Sales’ mission is “to provide quality services at an affordable price. Tharp’s Automotive and Sales is a small, family-owned business with customer satisfaction at its core. One of the things they are most excited to offer is complimentary pick-up and delivery services to anyone needing a full-service oil change. In addition to the service center, they also have a pre-owned auto lot. Financing is available to anyone, regardless of credit issues, through a finance company they have partnered with. In addition, they offer in-house financing as a secondary option. Customers can access the link to the credit app on the Tharp’s Automotive and Sales Facebook page and view their vehicle inventory.”
“We started our business 15 years ago, working on cars, and now have two car lots and a trucking company,” said Jeremy Tharp, owner of Tharp’s Automotive and Sales. “We are full-service. We do tires, brakes, oil changes, air conditioner work, front-end alignments, exhaust, and more. We also offer car sales with several different lenders and options for in-house financing,”
“Another thing we offer is free pick-up and delivery,” said Tharp. “If you need an oil change, brakes, or tires, we will come to get it, do the work, and bring it back while you are working. You don’t miss time with your family after work. That is a big deal for us, and it’s really starting to pick up.
In addition to providing automotive services, Tharp’s builds race cars and sells fuel and tires.
“We meet new faces daily, and being here is a privilege. We see what’s going on in the Batesville and Southside area; it’s growing daily, and we want to be a part of that. We are returning to our roots and where we’re from,” Tharp said.
