Our company was established in 1908. Back then we were primarily a blacksmith shop specializing in springs and suspensions on Carriages and Coaches. We worked on any transport vehicle motorized or horse drawn. Our founder, Mr. Arcand, had worked for some time with a Mr. Fisher in Amesbury, Mass.. This was prior to going out on his own and starting Arcand Spring Company. Mr. Fisher designed and manufactured carriage, automobile and truck frames. Mr. Fisher relocated to Detroit and his frames became the chassis's that General Motors built their vehicles around. You may recall seeing "Body by Fisher" on a General Motors product sill plate.

     As the motor car and truck rapidly took over as our way of transport, we expanded into all related areas of repair. These areas include brake repair, alignment and balancing of all axles and installation of accessory parts that complement a vehicle's usefulness.

     Our company has experienced the good and bad times. We have survived two World Wars and the Great Depression of the 1930's. How? We accomplished this by having hard working dedicated employees that strive to meet the customers needs. To this day, our employees continue this dedication and our philosophy remains;
"The customer comes first".

     When the 1950's and 1960's arrived we took on new challenge's with new product lines such as power lift gates, aerial towers / bucket trucks and snow plows. We continued to expand our knowledge on the new suspension and brake systems that were evolving. Our concentrations were on the new foreign technology as well as domestic autos and trucks.

     In 1975 we expanded our facility and doubled our size. This enabled us to perform repairs on any size over the road vehicle produced in the world today. Our part's department expanded as well and currently delivers spring, brake and suspension parts throughout New England and the United States.

     When the 1990's arrived, vehicle repairs were more dependent on having the latest high tech equipment at our disposal. We made the commitment and investment to stay on top of all technological advances that are introduced into our industry. This commitment enables us to repair a customers vehicle properly and in a timely manner. We hope you will come visit us or take advantage of our excellent part's department.

We want to be,
