Dave’s Mechanic Shop (DMS) started with one man, a toolbox, and a vision. Our founder, Dave Neves, began this journey as a mobile mechanic with nothing more than determination, skill, and the belief that customers deserved honesty and quality they could trust. Working out of driveways and parking lots, Dave built his reputation one repair at a time — through transparency, hard work, and a genuine commitment to helping people get back on the road.

What began as a one-man operation has grown into a full-service automotive and performance shop serving the Indianapolis community and beyond. Today, DMS is home to a team of passionate and highly skilled technicians who share Dave’s original values: do it right, stand behind the work, and treat every customer like family.

Our shop isn’t just about fixing cars — it’s about building relationships. Whether we’re performing routine maintenance, tackling complex engine replacements, or prepping a Mustang for the track, our focus remains the same: deliver top-quality service with honesty and care.

The story of DMS is proof that with passion and persistence, small beginnings can lead to big results. From mobile repairs to full-scale operations, from helping neighbors with their daily drivers to preparing race cars for track days, we’ve never lost sight of what matters most: our customers and our craft.

At DMS, we’re not just building better cars — we’re building a stronger automotive community, one repair at a time.
