Meet Mason Stratton & Hartwell Performance Automotive
Hartwell Performance Automotive is a locally owned automotive repair shop in Bastrop, Texas, founded by Mason Stratton. With over 15 years of hands-on experience in mechanical repair and automotive service, Mason built Hartwell on the kind of principles that don't go out of style: hard work, honest communication, and a commitment to doing the job right.
Before opening Hartwell, Mason spent years developing his skills across a range of automotive service and repair work — gaining the real-world experience that matters when a vehicle is on the lift. That background shows in the quality of every repair that leaves the shop.
At Hartwell Performance Automotive, the approach is simple. Find the actual problem, communicate clearly about what needs to be done and what it will cost, and then do the work right. No unnecessary add-ons, no vague explanations, no shortcuts. Just reliable automotive repair with the kind of care and attention that keeps customers coming back and sending their neighbors in.
As a Bastrop-based business, Hartwell Performance Automotive is invested in this community. The customers aren't just transactions — they're neighbors, and Mason takes that seriously every single day.
