For almost 20 years Al Huss Auto has been helping people drive safe and reliable cars. I always worked on cars and trucks, ever since I was a young kid. When I was sixteen I was hanging out at a shop one day and a guy told me that I should start working on newer cars and fixing them up so I could make some money. I started doing newer cars and started growing from there. I started my business on this site in 1991 and moved to the garage next
to my house in 1995. In 1998 we built our first new building. By 2000 we started doing more and more mechanical work, by 2002 about 90% of our work was mechanical, allowing us to grow our business and expand to another new building where we started working on medium to heavy-duty trucks. Now we cover everything from mechanical to collision.
My wife, Julie, and I have been involved with Holy Cross Church since 1990.
Al Huss Auto proudly sponsors community organizations like Little Chute High School's High Mileage Vehicle competition and St. Katherine Drexel's Spring Fever Frenzy. We support Scrip programs for St. Nick's, Fox Valley Lutheran, Xavier, Holy Cross and Kaukauna Catholic School System. We also sponsor school sports teams from:
Freedom High School
Little Chute High School
Xavier High School
Kaukauna High School
Kaukauna Catholic School System
