About Collette Motors

A Family Tradition of Honest Repairs Since 1939

Collette Motors has been part of the Grafton community for over 80 years — and we’re proud of it. What started as a one-man shop founded by Arthur Collette in 1939 has grown into a trusted, family-run business now led by his grandson, Jim Collette. Three generations later, the values we were built on still guide everything we do: honest work, fair prices, and treating people like neighbors.

We’re not a chain. We’re your local shop. And we’ve been here — in the same South Grafton location — since day one.
