Pinky's Automotive delivers expert diagnostics and honest communication for drivers in Pasadena and Hollywood. We combine generational family-owned values with advanced technology to ensure peak vehicle performance. Our mission remains simple: keeping you safely on the road with precision care you can depend on.
Pinky's Automotive was founded on a simple principle: treating every vehicle like it belongs to our own family. Our roots run deep in the vibrant car culture of Southern California, where a love of engines and craftsmanship is passed down through generations.
What began as a passion for building and fixing cars grew into two trusted neighborhood shops in Hollywood and Pasadena. Today, we pair that hands-on family heritage with modern diagnostic technology — so every customer drives away confident in honest work done right.
Ralph is equal parts gearhead and businessman, with a lifelong passion for building cars. Before founding Pinky's Automotive, he spent over 15 years in Los Angeles as a Master Technician and Shop Manager.
Carrying on the family tradition, Eddie brings years of hands-on experience to the team. As both Shop Foreman and owner-operator of our Pasadena location, he plays a key role in both the shop and customer experience.
