Meet the Business Owner
Tim G.
Business Owner
In 1959, Tim’s father Neil opened up his first muffler shop in Spokane, WA called Spokane mufflers. In 1963, Neil and his partner, Marvin Titterude moved to Seattle and opened their first shop West of the Cascade mountains.
In 1975, Neil and Marvin separated their business to make room for future generations to work in the business. This is when Neil’s son, Tim and Tim’s brother-in-law Chuck Harlowe started operating the family business, to eventually take over when Neil retired in 1982.
In 1998, to prepare for the family’s 3rd generation to start working in the business, Tim and Chuck separated the franchise again, with Tim’s Midas franchise Gold Link Inc. being born. In 2001, Tim’s daughter Briana began working in the family business. Tim and his wife Jennie are very active in running their business, and Briana manages the store in Marysville.
