Mike Glosser - Owner / Automotive Repair Specialist

My experience in the car business started over 30 years ago, just after graduating from the University of Pennsylvania with a B.A. in Psychology. I moved to the West Coast and boldly decided to follow my passion for cars by enrolling in the East Los Angeles Skill Center, earning a diploma in Brakes and Front Ends. True!! My first job was with the Sears Store in Hollywood, California. Since then I have worked in all phases of the automotive industry, including tire stores, many new car dealerships (Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Chrysler, Mazda), and many independent shops. I was one of the earliest Bosch trained fuel injection specialists in the U.S. My automotive skills are very broad, and I have been an A.S.E. Master Technician for 20 years.

I believe a skilled independent shop is where the customer will get the best bang for the buck in car repair, not to mention the personal touch. That is why my wife and I decided to start our own shop in Everett in 1994. Our goals are to provide you with the highest level of service and customer satisfaction by fixing your car right the first time, at a reasonable price, and backing it up with an unmatched warranty. Give us a try and you will soon be among our family of satisfied customers!

Marilyn Glosser - Owner

My first business experiences were in the food industry, owing a wholesale sandwich company and later several small restaurants. Then in 1984, I moved to Washington from Louisiana and went back to school to study bookkeeping. When Mike and I met in 1987, I had my first introduction to the automotive repair industry. With my previous business experience and recent certification in bookkeeping, we had a strong background for developing what was to be our future business together, G P Automotive. Throughout the years, I have worked at G P keeping the books and doing various jobs such as taxes and banking. With our daughter leaving for college soon, I will be around even more helping out at the shop. Please stop in sometime. I know you will find us to be friendly, fair folks. Hope to see you soon.
