What's with "Almost" Everything?!!

Every week we get asked what the "Almost" means in Almost Everything Auto Body. This car is a good example." It was a beautiful and well loved by its owners. Sadly, it was too badly damaged to fix. Some of the things we showed the customer were the doors pushed back and down over the rear panels. The frame was crushed like an accordion AND sagging in the middle. Repairs would cost more than the car was worth and probably not get the car back to original condition. The owner plans to put the engine, wheels and any other valuable components, into a donor chassis then bring it back to us to match the original paint job.

"Almost" Everything - We'll Tell You It's Time to Give Up

Many people ask us what the "Almost" means in our name. This truck is a good example. Although we could fix it, we told the owner that he was better off buying another vehicle. In addition to the obvious damage, the frame was twisted and the suspension had problems. If someone were to fix it, we'd be afraid to ride in it. It was definitely a total loss. You could probably buy a nice used F-150 for less than half of what it would cost to fix this one.

Hood Blew Open on Ford Escape

This is the type thing that can ruin your day. Thankfully no one was injured. Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2011 Ford Escape Hybrid. A mounting bracket for the hood broke and the hood few open and collapsed on the windshield. We replaced the hood, the mounting bracket, hood latch and hinges. We also repainted some scrapes on the fenders.

Creased Quarter Panel on Mustang

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1995 Ford Mustang that had a big crease on its side. The damage was not covered by insurance so the customer took a budget-minded approach. Instead of removing the trim in the damaged area (tail light, black mouldings, bumper cover, vent) the customer had us mask these parts to keep labor costs to a minimum. And because the car was faded, he also took the opportunity to paint the entire car, not just the damaged area. For those with good eyes who spot something a little odd, he's going to replace the passenger side mirror himself.

Ford Explorer Collision Repair

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1999 Ford Explorer that was rear ended. The bumper got pushed in and caused a dent in the quarter panel and some minor frame damage. We worked with the insurance company to replace the bumper, pull the frame and fix the dents.

2007 Ford Explorer Color Change!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2007 Ford Explorer "Sport Trac". This pint-sized pickup came to our shop as another average looking, every day common, silverish-tan truck.  The truck's owner was tired of blending in and decided to have our shop paint it with a tad bit brighter color.  The chosen paint color was Ford's "Grabber Orange" more commonly found on late 1960's and early 1970's High Performance Mustangs, in our "Urethane Single Stage" paint material!
