Our History
In 1979, a young couple David and Virginia with three young children started a small auto body repair and paint facility together in Brea. Both Dave and Virginia were born and raised in Southern California. Dave loved cars all of his life and was an expert in the industry. Virginia worked from home in the early years to care for the children.
Dave passed away recently. Virginia now works side by side with children and expert staff. Some of the staff has been with her for 40 years.
Proudly, about 60% to 70% of their customers are repeat customers or referrals from repeat customers. Virginia now has five grandchildren she adores and many wonderful friends. She has had the pleasure of forming friendships with their customers and servicing their customers children and even their grandchildren. She lives her life with charity and giving back in mind.
Brea Auto Body has also purchased, repaired, and gifted vehicles to several charities over the years. In 2005, the family along with their daughter Denise’s new husband Fred, were awarded the National Auto Body Council Pride Award for Humanitarian Acts outside of the industry. Virginia and David also are proud recipients of the St. Denis Catholic Community Pastoral Award for Humanitarian Acts and Service to their Community. Their care for their customers and their community is evident in the quality and service they provide. They are grateful for their loyal customers and are active in the Local and National Trade Associations to assure they are current with the latest technologies and training.
