What We Sell and Service

About us

Vandelay Industries is the Ozarks only Automotive Equipment Distributor and manufacturer representative that focuses on a completely comprehensive investment process, as well as service after the sale. We can help you through every step of setting up a new shop, or upgrading your existing equipment. We are the only sales company serving southwest Missouri performing service to all major brands of equipment, including Hunter Engineering equipment.

The major difference between us and a catalog is our level of commitment to make your purchase and ownership of all your equipment a positive experience. We continue to work for you after the sale. For example, did you know that the majority of service calls do not require parts? Without the burden of parts expense, we can afford to do everything possible to get you up and running over the phone. We help hundreds of our customers every year repair their own equipment without service calls or down time. When you buy equipment from us, we feel obligated to do everything we can to help you in every way possible, and for as little as possible. If that means we give our hard earned experience away for free over the phone, then that is exactly what we will do.

We serve everything in Missouri south of I-70, as well as a 100 mile radius around Columbia.

We serve all of Arkansas, with representatives in Springdale, and Little Rock.

Vandelay Industries began in 1999, under the name, Hunter Service.  At that time, we were Technical and training representatives for Hunter Engineering. As product representatives, we were able to provide service, training and installations for over 275 tire and alignment shops in the Ozarks. Our customer satisfaction was such that when our contract with Hunter Engineering expired in 2005, we retained about 95% of our     customer base for the Hunter line alone. In the next two years, we increased our customer base to well over 700, and represent two international manufacturers, as well as distributors for over 60 other brands.

• In 2003, we incorporated under the name, Vandelay Industries, Inc. Before you ask, yes, I am a Seinfeld fan.

• In 2004, we hired our first service technician, Charles Bullock, and began offering same day, next day service to all our customers.

• September, 2005 we became an independent  representative for Bear Engineering, and distributors for some of the best brands in the industry such as Corghi tire changers and balancers, Kwik-Way machining and undercar equipment,

• October 2005, Jacob Anderson joined our team as our lead service technician.

• Late 2005, we established a network of distributors to supply all regions with a wider variety of brands and supplies, making the purchasing experience much more satisfying, and comprehensive.

• Between late 2005, until mid 2007, we changed the way our customers looked at automotive equipment in their shop. Where before, you were married to your manufacturers service representative, now you had a choice. We offered an alternative to the slow response, and high prices of the factory service rep.

• Early 2006, we began offering a lift inspection package, with award winning results. Our focus on dealerships won our customer's recognition from OSHA for a "perfect score" during a surprise inspection, a first for the inspector!

• November, 2006 we sold our first of many BEAR alignment machines. Joplin Ford was the very first shop in southwest Missouri to own the new BEAR ALIGNER. Wireless, with the six toe package, they wanted the best available and they got it!  See below for a listing of BEAR aligner customers....

• June, 2007 we were offered, and accepted the honor of representing Pro-Cut International, with their On-Car-Brake-Lathe.

• September, 2007, Eddie Thurman joined our team as Sales in Columbia, Missouri.

• October, 2007, Ted Toensing joined our team in Little Rock, Arkansas.

With our focus on quality equipment, and maintaining the philosophy of "No Bull" sales process, our customer's can focus on their needs, and let us help them, instead of having to second guess everything they are told.

Our reputation is everything. We will not compromise that. We believe that we are here for our customers, and that everything we do should help them do their job better, faster, and more efficient.

We really do love our jobs, and I think it shows.

Put us to work for you today!!!
