Gresham Park Collision Center

The body shop is now called AutoStar. My car was at the shop for 22 days for a back fender bender and a faulty door hindge. Ramon had my car so long that the rental insurance ran out on my policy and I was without a car at all for 5 days. While fixing my initial damage more damage was caused to my speaker and my fender. Also, my right headlight was off (was on when I dropped my car off). My car was returned with black sut on my driver’s seat my mat and my door. And, the biggie is that my car had an additional 100 miles on it. Hmmmm. Ramon made sure that he was not there when it was time for me to pick up my car. He had a worker accept the money, and cashed the check immediately.

I chose this body shop b/​c I had visited them before for minor cosmetic damage and the turn around was great. Ramon is professional, quick and get things done. I was again found in need of a shop to get my rear bumper repaired after being hit at a shopping center. Once again Ramon got my car done right before the holidays and dealt with the adjuster so I wouldn’t be troubled.
Picked up my car today and they did a great job on the paint match, repair and detailing of car.
Highly recommend for great staff and owner!

I smashed my bumper the other day and took it to see what could be done.
Ramon, the owner of the shop, was friendly, proffessional and gave me a quote on the spot. Took the car in Wed morning and was done by the end of the day!
Great turn around time (Granted it was a small crack) and he offered to pick me up from my house when the car was ready.
Would recommend!

Hit a pole in the parking deck at my office and messed up the passenger side on a black 2005 Honda Pilot. Took it to Gresham Park Collsion Center for an estimate based on a review on Unilocal.I was a little aprehensive based on the location and how the shop looks from the outside, but I took a chance. They did an excellent job! Paint and mirror are perfect!
Would go back again for sure. alothough hopefully I don’t have to! lol

So I decided to buy a 1979 Lincoln Continental, my current «dream car.» I knew driving it would take a little getting used to, however I didn’t anticipate scraping it against a wall, especially my own carport wall! Needless to say, I was nearly brought to tears, instantly thinking of who could effectively repair such an old car. After a couple of weeks of searching and receiving a few outrageous quotes, I decided to visit Gresham Park Collision Center. I’ve seen the place for years, but it never crossed my mind previously to go inside for a quote. Because the location is in what some would call a less than desirable area, a little skepticism was not unreasonable.
So I entered and was promptly greeted by an older gentleman, whom I will assume owns the place. (I’m not very good with names) I told him what I needed, he walked out with me to inspect the car, we went back inside and he began producing a quote. Because of the age of the car he had to manually write a quote, because his program didn’t go back that far. lol So I’m sitting there he pulls out the calculator and goes to town. The whole time I’m thinking, «He really is doing a lot with that calculator, I know I’m not gonna like the end result, but okay I’ll wait». About 5 minutes later, in true negotiation style, he slides the quote across the desk. The quote was nearly half of the quotes I had gotten from everyone else! Of course I kept my poker face on while my insides were ready to explode and say YES YES YES!!! I’ll take it!!! Instead I simply asked, «how long will it take you to finish?»
After leaving the car, naturally I expected the best, yet prepared for the worst. I was told it would take a week to complete the car, and I can tell you, this was what I would call a very interesting week for me. I almost felt like the little kid waiting for Christmas morning. I dropped the car off on a Monday, and Friday I went to pick it up. I slowly pulled into the parking lot, almost scared to look for my car. Since the car is a land barge, spotting it wasn’t very hard to do. The work done to the car was nothing short of perfection! There was no evidence that any damage was ever done to my baby. All of the staff was extremely professional and courteous. I even got an opportunity to meet the guy that worked on the car. He got a nice tip, btw!
This experience was definitely my «aha» moment, where I remembered the old adage of never judging a book by its cover! I would encourage anyone to give this shop the opportunity to make you as happy as they made me!
