FLAHERTY SEZ...THANKS!!

“More Changes Coming” It seems like every week someone asks me “What do you guys do here at FLAHERTY’S HI-TECH MOTORWERKS?” My first answer is “Darn near anything automotive,” but here’s a bit more info...We sell pre-owned trucks and cars, specializing in custom trucks that we build in-house, collector and special interest vehicles, plus 6 brands of quality enclosed and open trailers. We also offer over 1,000 accessory brands - many that we buy manufacturer-direct and we add several more each month, so we can get most anything you need. We do traditional car and truck service, but we’re known for truck customizing. We feature wheels and tires, suspension lifts and lowering, tuners for diesel or gas, high flow exhaust kits, and the best deals around on tonneau covers, bed liners, running boards - most any accessory and we’ll install them for you. We have several brands of crate engines and transmissions from high performance to original replacement, and can upgrade your collector vehicle if you wish. If you’re looking for more horsepower for your late model Corvette, Camaro, Challenger, SUV or pickup, we can install a supercharger and performance exhaust (we love that!). By the way, we are also Auto Brokers and can assist you in locating and the purchase of any new or used vehicle - we make car buying easy. STAYED TUNED IN 2013!
