About the shop
Real Craftsmanship. Real Automotive Passion.
Iron Auto Works is an independent repair, restoration and custom shop in Mankato, Minnesota.
Our story
Old School Shop, Modern Tools.
We started Iron Auto Works because we wanted to run the kind of shop we’d bring our own cars to. Honest, good at what we do, and serious about doing the job right.
We work on just about everything, from newer daily drivers to classic muscle cars and trucks. One day it’s tracking down an electrical problem, the next it’s cutting rust out of a quarter panel or pulling a body off the frame. Every job gets the same care.
We won’t upsell you, and we won’t do work you haven’t approved. We do good work and we stand behind it.
What we believe
How We Work
Do It Right
Find the real problem and fix it properly the first time.
Be Straight With People
Clear estimates, honest advice, and a phone call before any extra work.
Respect the Car
Commuter or show car, we treat it like it’s our own.
Stand Behind It
If we worked on it, our name is on it.

You’ll find us at 401 Bluff St. Suite 13 in Mankato. We see customers from Mankato, North Mankato, St. Peter, New Ulm, Waseca and all over southern Minnesota, and we’re happy to take on restoration projects from farther out.
