Three generations of body and paint craftsmanship in the heart of the South Bay. Collision repair, custom finishes, and classic restorations — done right the first time.
Every panel is hand-prepped. Every coat is laid down in a sealed booth. We don't cut corners and we don't rush a job out the door — that's how we've stayed in business since the Carter administration.
Whether you've got insurance paperwork or a passion project sitting under a tarp, Carlos and the crew will treat it like their own.
From a parking-lot ding to a frame-up restoration — one shop, one crew, one standard.
Full structural and cosmetic restoration after impact. Insurance-friendly estimates.
Factory-match or wild custom finishes laid down in a controlled booth.
From 1960s Mustangs to vintage Chevys — bringing icons back to showroom glory.
Precision dent work that disappears without a trace.
Computer-measured frame and structural alignment.
Bumpers, panels, and quarter panels rebuilt and refinished.
Founder Carlos Marin opened the shop in the summer of 1977, in the heart of the South Bay — one stall, one paint gun, no shortcuts.
Almost five decades later, that same dedication runs the place. What started as one man's dream is now a family-owned business where Carlos still walks the floor every morning.
"We treat every car like it's our own — because for a few weeks, it is."
"Over the moon with the exceptional customer service and great body work that Carlos and Son provided."
"I shopped around to at least 10 different paint shops — Carl had the best price and the work was awesome."
"Great service, professional staff and owner, and always done in a timely manner."
