Six Decades in the Making
Vic Serves His Country
Before he ever turned a wrench professionally, Vic served in the United States Army during World War II. He came home to Long Island, married Millie, and set about building a life for their family.
Vic Gets to Work
Vic started working at the Mobil service station at 285 North Broadway in Hicksville, New York. With Millie by his side, he threw himself into the business with everything he had.
Taking the Wheel
Three years in, Vic earned the opportunity to operate the station himself. Times were hard and the hours were long, but Vic and Millie worked side by side to make it their own. Broadway Service Center was born.
Through the Oil Crisis
The 1973 oil embargo sent gas prices soaring across America. While others struggled, Vic kept the pumps running and the bays full, earning a reputation for reliability and fairness when customers needed it most.
A 14-Year-Old Starts Sweeping Floors
Bob was 14 years old when he started helping out around the shop. He swept floors, cleaned bays, and watched everything his father did. From the beginning, it was clear he was meant to be there.
Running the Shop at 18
By the time Bob was 18, he was running the service side of the operation alongside his father. Not watching. Running. The same honesty, the same work ethic, the same commitment to doing it right.
The Handoff
Vic passed the keys to Bob. Everything Vic built, the reputation, the relationships, the standard of work, became Bob's responsibility to carry forward. He has never treated it as anything less.
Decades of Trust Built One Car at a Time
Broadway Servicenter relocated to Garden City and kept growing. Bob is at the shop every single day - not because he has to be, but because this is what he does. That is not changing.
"This isn't just a business to us. It started with my father giving everything he had to build something from nothing, and I've spent my whole life making sure that means something." - Bob, Owner
