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.

Doing It Right--Restoration of a 1995 Toyota Supra
The 1995 Toyota Supra is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. It was hugely expensive and as a result, it was rare even when in production. Like the Chevrolet Corvette, Dodge Viper and Nissan GT-R, it was a supercar from a company that otherwise made fairly pedestrian vehicles. The owner of this example brought it back to its original glory. He disassembled the car himself, had us fix all the dings, dents and rust, then had us paint it with our urethane 2-stage technology base coat-clear coat.

Brand New Car Body Damage
This 2015 Toyota Camry had less than 200 miles on the odometer when an accident happened. The fender, bumper, brackets and fender liner were damaged. When we disassembled the car we also found that the headlamp was broken and had to be replaced. Insurance covered the cost of the repairs and damaged parts were replaced with original Toyota parts.
