“Have tools, will travel” —
that’s what the back of his van
reads and that’s what he does for a
living.
Glenn Butler, of 2307 Nuches
Lane, Bryan, is an auto mechanic
on wheels. The speciality of his
service is house calls for minor car
repairs in Bryan and College Sta
tion.
Butler has been a mobile
mechanic for seven years. His
blue and white ’68 Chevrolet
Stepvan advertises his service and
carries the tools of his trade.
Butler said his service is good

one not wanting the hassle of hav
ing to wait all day in an auto repair
shop or the extra cost of towing.
He said he came up with the
idea when he was offered the own
ership of an Illinois service station
where he had worked for 15 years.
But he said he wanted to stay in
mechanics and to be his own boss.
Butler said he came here be
cause his wife was from Navasota,
and he had been stationed pre
viously at Bryan Air Force Base,
where he worked as an aircraft
mechanic.
Butler, 42, said that when he
began his business in 1974, he was
on call 24 hours a day for car repair
appointments. He worked every
Meetings
set for
candidates
Candidates for the 1981 general
election must attend a mandatory
meeting, which will be held after
they have filed for a particular
position, Greg Dew, executive
vice president for Student Gov
ernment, said Wednesday.
In addition to the positions that
are unfilled, 38 other positions
have only one person running.
The meetings will be held
March 22 and 23 at 7:30 p.m. in
the 110 Harrington Classroom
Center. Dew said the campaign
guidelines for candidates will be
discussed. He stressed that all
candidates, including write-in
candidates, must attend to be con
sidered formal candidates.
Dew said it’s “legal” to cam
paign for a write-in candidate;
however, his name will not appear
on the ballot.
He also said there are several
positions in the student senate
without filings. These include:
one senior and one graduate stu
dent representative from the Col
lege of Liberal Arts; one College of
Medicine representative at-large;
one University Apartment repre
sentative; Ohe representative 6f
Keathley, Fowler and Hughes
halls and the modular dorms.
Also open are two places for off-
campus Ward 2 representatives
and one representative of Ward 3.
Ward 2 is the area south of Univer
sity Drive and west of Texas Ave
nue. Ward 3 is north of University
Drive and east of Texas Avenue.
Four spaces for off-campus gra
duate student representatives are
open; candidates don’t need to
live in a particular ward, he said.
Dew said there are 15 positions
open in the Graduate Student
Council. These include: one rep
resentative from the College of
Science and one from the College
of Veterinary Medicine; two from
the colleges of Education, En
gineering, Geosciences and Li
beral Arts and five from the Col
lege of Agriculture.
Candidates are allowed a $75
campaign budget, instead of the
$65 limit printed in the general
election regulations handbook.
Dew said the $65 limit was a mis
print.
Election dates are March 31 and
April 1.

passing out fliers and taking out
small ads in the newspaper.
Two years later he worked six
days a week; two years after that
he cut his work load to the present
12 hours a day, five days a week.
After he had worked a while,

in being low down
ing with a partner, but it didn’t
work out. He said working with a
partner would be difficult because
he wouldn’t be able to ensure the
quality of work he wants.
Butler charges $7 base fee for
Bryan, $8 base fee for College Sta
tion plus $12 an hour. If extra parts
are needed, he carries replace
ments in his van or he will buy
parts from the closest auto parts
shop and add the cost to the bill.
Butler has four children, in
cluding a 17-year-old boy who
shares his father’s interest in
mechanics. “Hopefully my son
will take over my business one of
these days, if he wants it,” he said.
“I enjoy what I do but the older
I get the less I enjoy it. ” He folded
his grease-stained hands on the
table and said it’s getting harder to
keep up with new car models be
cause of additions like pollution
control devices.
Butler said he thinks auto en
gineers should be mechanics first.
“You wonder where they get those
engineers,” he said with a faint
smile. “Seems like they build
things to wear out, not to last — I
could be wrong.”
