Family Owned & Operated Auto Repair Shop | Coeur d'Alene, ID

Midtown Motorworks Est. 2006 | Coeur d'Alene, ID

For nearly 30 years MidTown MotorWorks owner Scott Anderson has been working on cars starting at the age of 17. His 1976 Chevy Blazer, which he still owns and drives today, was the start of his passion for learning all he could at a young age while also working at an Automotive Parts store. 

Graduating high school in 1990, Scott went straight to the Universal Technical Institute in Phoenix, AZ. and graduated in 1991 with an Associate of Occupational Studies Degree in Automotive Diesel Technology. After graduating Scott immediately began working in the Auto Service and Repair industry at locally owned businesses in his home town of Santa Cruz CA. In 1996 Scott moved to Coeur d’Alene, ID to be close to his mom and other family members. He started his career locally at Spokane Chrysler, moving to Chrysler Jeep Midway in Post Falls, ID. 

In the meantime he started a family of his own and planted deep roots in the Coeur d’Alene community living in Mid Town off 5th st. Privately Scott started restoring his father’s 1970 El Camino and earned a reputation as the go to restoration mechanic in town.  
While still working at Midway in Post Falls, Scott started moonlighting restoration jobs for several private customers. He built this foundation of loyal customers on his excellent reputation for integrity, honestly and quality work at a fair price. The demand for his time and service from private customers out grew his ability to maintain these customers in addition to his full time position at Midway where he was also in high demand for service work due to his skills and knowledge. 

It was time to take a leap of faith and open up his own shop. In 2006 Scott and his then partner Tim McIntosh open MidTown MotorWorks in a small shop around the corner from their current location. It didn’t take long to outgrow that 1st location and in 2010 Scott purchased the old gas station across the street from Safeway in Mid Town. Scott restored that old gas station into what is now known as MidTown MotorWorks.  

Shortly thereafter Scott bought out MidTown MotorWorks from his then partner and is the sole owner of MidTown MotorWorks. His daughter Kodi works right alongside dad running a top notch locally owned and family operated business that takes pride in serving the community that they live in. 

Scott and his daughter, Kodi, make a great team along with their service team Joseph and Guy…stop in and say hi and find out why so many locals trust their auto service to MidTown MotorWorks!
