About Our Auto Shop
The Owner of Southside Motors, Alicia & John, started the business out of their passion for cars & their involvement in the car community. Their journey together started in Southern California in 2011, when they met. In 2017 one of John's very close friends from the service, lived in North Carolina, had a tragic accident and passed away. Apon passing he left insuructions for a F150 Lightening truck to go to John, if he wanted it, which ofcourse he did.
When he came to pick up the truck he fell in love with south. North Carolina / Virgina reminded him of what was origionally home in New England. The two of them decided to buy the house his friend lived in as an investment property. At the time it was impossible to imagine living their full time, but after living thru COVID in 2020 they both agree it would be impossible to imagine living in Southern California.
It was not long after moving to North Carolina that we purchased our GT350R and our Super Snake was doing being built by Shelby America. We started one weekend in February (2022) taking both vehicles out to Cars & Coffee in Roxboro, and we became addicted to the culture. By September of that year we were heavenly involved in the local car community. We were attending events, doing cruise-ins, showing our vehicles and spending good quality time with other vehicle owners like our self.
In 2023 Southside Motors opened in Danville, Virginia with a goal to provide excellent service and top quality work on vehicles of all kinds. We just completed our move to South Boston Virgina in May 2025. We encourage everyone to come out and meet the owners.
"The best part of being involved in the car culture are the people that share a love and a passion like us. It gives me joy to share that with others and help them have a vahicle to drive every day that is reliable and they are proud of"
