Houston Auto Service was founded in 1951 by William "Bill" Morris Canterbury. In the 1970's, Bill received his auto dealer’s license and began selling cars as a supplement to the service department. Rusty Canterbury bought the business from Bill in 1989, sized down the service department, and focused solely on the business of selling quality pre-owned vehicles. In 2001, Rusty changed the name of the Dealership from Houston Auto Service to Houston Auto Sales.

Houston Auto Sales has a reputation of being fair and honest. We give individuals a chance to purchase a vehicle who might not otherwise be able to because of their poor credit or other extenuating circumstances. Most of Houston Auto Sales’s customers live in the community and have known Rusty Canterbury since he was a child. They know that Rusty acquired his father’s honesty, empathy, and ability to make a person feel like they are truly important. Customer satisfaction is important to Houston Auto Sales and this is the reason why his customers keep coming back to us for their vehicle needs.
