Body Shops in Smithville, MO

“The service I recently received at Dave's Auto Body & Hot Rod Shop was the best I've experienced at any auto service establishment in memory. The owner, Robin, personally helped me with two service repairs, one of which—a brake light bulb outage—he had brought to my attention because I had overlooked it myself. He was conversational, friendly, and professional, and the work he performed on my vehicle was eminently good.

I'll share one anecdote from my visit that hopefully demonstrates the quality of the service and the attention to detail the shop offers. After popping the hood of my vehicle and fixing my headlight, but before turning his attention to the brake light bulb, Robin noticed that my hood bumper stops had become too depressed. Their depression was causing the hood to move while the vehicle was in motion even while the hood was fully latched. I didn't bring this issue to his attention. He noticed it during the course of his work and patiently fixed this problem, going back and forth from the hood to the hood release over the course of a few minutes to get the stops just right in order to ensure the hood would seal tightly.

As anyone knows who is interested in having auto body repairs done on their vehicle, this craft demands attention to detail and and a clear vision of the end results. But there is also a human element to the work that is just as important. The work isn’t done in a vacuum. It’s done with and for people, and Robin gets this principle perhaps better than anyone I've met who is working on cars.

Needless to say, I highly recommend the work of Dave's Auto Body & Hot Rod Shop and remain really grateful for the work they did for me.”

“Wonderful service. They painted my bumper. It looks amazing and they wiped down the inside of my car and cleaned my dog slobbered windows! That's service!”

“Took my truck in due to body damage from a tire blow out. They gave me a quick quote. Let me know when the parts were in and had everything fixed in less than the time originally expected. I would use this business again in the future!”

“Butch did a phenomenal job on two of my vehicles. They had been pummeled by hail but when I picked them up from Dent Squad USA, they looked brand new again. He got every dent out and even took out previously existing ones for me at no extra charge. Very easy to work with, even provided a loaner car and worked with me on the deductible. Wonderful experience by a clearly seasoned professional. Couldn't have been more impressed.”
