Now in its third generation, our business was started in our grandfather Rudy's backyard garage in 1930. Despite the Great Depression, Rudy kept the business going and moved to Pastime Drive in the 1940s. In the 1960s, our father, Paul, took over the business and moved it to larger quarters, where we still operate today. Take a look at an old invoice from 1959. The Frame Shop, started in the 1950s and originally on Syracuse's West Side, joined the Body Shop in the early 1970s, doubling the size of our present location.

Since 1992, the next generation, PJ Schmid and Diane Schmid-McCall have continued the family’s tradition of quality customer service. We’ve got a Customer Service Approval rating of 98%, as calculated by an independent research firm.

We continually train our staff on the latest trends and technology. We have our personnel trained to I-CAR standards. We’re proud of our staff, and confident they’ll work on your vehicle to GET IT DONE RIGHT!
