Scott Jacobs
​Owner, CEO
​and ASE Certified Master Technician

Scott Jacobs founded Motorcar Makeovers in 1995. After working through college, primarily in the automotive industry, Scott was able to achieve a B.S. in Psychology with a concentration in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, (Magna Cum Laude) and a B.A. in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing (Magna Cum Laude) in 1993 from Beaver College (Arcadia University).

​Scott then enrolled in Philadelphia College of Textiles and Science's (now Philadelphia University) MBA program. Halfway through the program, the decision to gain real world experience became more enticing to Scott. After re-examining various business techniques and models, achieving ASE certification as a Technician, Service Consultant and Parts Specialist, and saving up as much money as possible, the development of Motorcar Makeovers became his top priority. While concentrating on the growth of any small business in America, tireless hours and days turned into months and years.

Looking back, Scott refers to the conception of Motorcar Makeovers as the best decision he has ever made. “I’ve met thousands of people and learned countless lessons from everyone I have come in contact with, from customers to employees to vendors and suppliers,” quipped Scott. “I owe all of my success to them. I’ve vowed to consistently be available to everyone, and will always be at the shop until I physically cannot make it out of bed. This is my life's work! I continually strive to make the shop better, and will continue to surround myself among those who can contribute to the shop’s success.”

Sindy Jacobs
Administration

Sindy Jacobs joined Motorcar Makeovers in January of 2001. After years of experience at her father’s body shop, Alan’s Collision in Montgomeryville, PA, Sindy already possessed the necessary skills to run the front office at Motorcar Makeovers.

​Quickly, we learned that Sindy could not only improve the efficiency of the accounting and paperwork, but also thrived in various other areas of the business. Sindy brings stability to the lobby area and is able to excel in the most integral part of our business – customer service. It is Sindy that you will speak to on the phone 95% of the time and ALL customers are treated with respect and personalized attention.

Without her talents we never would have been able to grow in the manner that we did. Like many small businesses there are vital key people that provide the opportunity to maintain and grow. Sindy inspires us to achieve our goals and exceed our customers' expectations.

Scott Moyer

Back in the 1980s, Scott Moyer began his career in the automotive field — pumping gas and doing minor vehicle repairs at a local gas station while attending high school. After graduating high school, Scott worked as an automobile mechanic and attended Community College, majoring in Automotive Technology.

In the early 1990’s, Scott decided to enter into the automotive parts business. Through hard work and dedication, Scott worked his way up to a management position. For Scott, it was the best of everything he enjoyed most: Working with people, cars and numbers. Scott enjoyed several years of business success, as well as personal success, managing every facet of an automotive parts business.
​
For two decades, Scott Moyer, and Scott Jacobs, Founder of Motorcar Makeovers, had a close personal relationship, as well as a business relationship. As business began to grow for Motorcar Makeovers, the need for a Service Manager grew more and more obvious every day. Scott Jacobs needed someone to help run his business the way he had been accustomed to for many years. Someone trustworthy, honest, and customer oriented. Essentially, someone that had the same ideas, aspirations and goals. Someone that Scott Jacobs knew would run his automotive repair business the way it has been run for the two decades prior. In the Spring of 2014, Scott Jacobs and Scott Moyer decided to join together as a team, with the same goals and aspirations of making Motorcar Makeovers the best auto repair shop in Montgomery County, and unquestionably one of the best automotive repair businesses in Pennsylvania.
