Not an employee, a new business partner….

Hello Element and Wider Honda Community!

My name is Talon Thomas. I am proud to announce that David and I are officially cooperative business partners here at Classic Automotive NC.

Thanks to David, a few of you in the community already know me. If not, fear not! The day will come when we will meet :)

A brief background:

I have been a gearhead my whole life. There are family pictures of me out there holding tools in diapers, riding 4 wheelers with a pacifier in my mouth, and browsing technical repair books and manuals before I could even read. I have always liked figuring out how things work; this curiosity has (generally) served me well.

Fast forward to working age → I’ve been a practicing automotive technician at independent and dealer shops for over 20 years combined. have been a practicing automotive software and hardware engineer for the last 10 years. In all my years of work, my love of Honda’s has never left me. So fear me, for I am a wizard wielding both a laptop and a wrench!

Fast forward to today → David and I are combining our forces of knowledge and experience for good. We both have the same sentiments when it comes to our working philosophy, and the way we treat people: “Treat every person and customer that comes through the door like you would want to be treated, you will have returning friends for life.”

Thanks for reading, I’m sure we will be meeting soon!

I look forward to getting more involved with the Element community as time goes on, and both David and I look forward to handling your vehicle service needs now, and into the future.

Sincerely,

Talon.
