After serving as a technician at Park Motors in Augusta for 14 years, Curtis Carey had hopes of one day owning his own automotive shop. That dream became a reality earlier this month as he and his wife, Sheri, purchased Koop Auto from Elden and Doreen Koop, who owned the business for just under four years.
On Monday, Sept. 7, the Carey’s opened Carey Auto & Tire and hope to serve the Howard community with parts and automotive services. C. Carey is a longtime resident of Howard, graduating with the West Elk class of 1996.
Carey Auto & Tire will be open Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. - 12 p.m. and 1-4 p.m. The business is located at 144 S. Wabash, in Howard.
Carey Auto & Tire is planning to host an open house later this fall, with details to be shared at a later date.
For more information or to schedule a service, contact Carey Auto & Tire at 620-374-2355.
