At Butchie’s Automotive, we’re more than just a small-town auto repair shop — we’re a tribute to a legacy of honesty, hard work, and community. Our shop was founded in honor of Richard Lee “Butch” Norman Jr., a lifelong automotive enthusiast from Onaway, Michigan whose passion for cars and helping people shaped everything we do.

Butch spent decades turning wrenches, solving automotive problems, and building relationships. From working on cars in his driveway to operating his own service business, he lived and breathed all things automotive. His kindness, sense of humor, and willingness to help anyone in need made him beloved by family, friends, and countless customers.

At Butchie’s Automotive, we carry forward his spirit by delivering honest, reliable auto repair with the same care he gave every vehicle that rolled into his shop. We’re proud to serve neighbors in Onaway, Michigan and beyond with friendly service, fair pricing, and expert workmanship. Clear communication, quality repairs, and treating every customer like family aren’t just slogans — they’re the values Butch stood for, and the standards we uphold every day.

When you trust us with your vehicle, you’re joining a tradition of integrity, skill, and genuine care — rooted in the legacy of a man who loved cars and people equally.
