Nicholas Navarro
Founder

Nicholas (Nick) was raised in Northern New Jersey. His passion for cars grew out of love for all things mechanical, and at age 14, well before he possessed a driver's license, he was given his uncle's nonrunning 1984 Mercedes 300CD. He spent the next two years getting the car roadworthy just in time for his 16th birthday. Needless to say, this triggered a passion for cars. He eventually graduated from McPherson College with a bachelor's degree having an emphasis in "Automotive restoration."  After graduation, Nick went on to become an Automotive/Restoration Specialist with a world-renowned restoration facility in the North East. It was not uncommon to find Nick under the hood of a 1920s Duesenberg or rebuilding an Italian race car's drive train. Nick then saw an opportunity to enter the tech start-up space as a sales consultant in New York City. After some time and longing to get back to his automotive roots, he moved on to creating NAC. Nick's goal is to help others enjoy cars as much as he does. When not in the office, Nick is visiting clients, admiring the cars on the lawn of Pebble Beach, or his personal favorite, cruising down a back road with his family in a vintage Jeep. 

Gobi
CTO

Gobi, our in-house Chief Treat Officer, has created a unique position for himself at NAC. He spends most of his day at Nick's desk, sleeping away, meeting new clients with a wagging tail, and, most of all, riding to an ice cream shop on a summer night in a vintage Jeep.
