The Body Shop Collision Repair

1976 In a leased tin-roof building located at LBJ and Central Expressway in Dallas, The Body Shop completed their first repair on a Mercedes Benz for Van Winkle Motors. Founder, John Rattan, had a passion for business excellence and joined forces with a family member who had the expertise of a gifted craftsman.

1978 In just a few years The Body Shop moved to Garland and over the course of thirty-eight years has had a strong business presence there, as well as a devotion to community involvement in the Garland area. The current location is on Forest Lane.

2000 Going back to his birth place, John always had a desire to have a business in McKinney. He purchased and remodeled a former Chevrolet dealership, and The Body Shop Collision Repair opened in May. McKinney is currently the corporate headquarters, and the largest location where John still immerses himself in the community. He strives to deliver world class experience to his customers when they choose The Body Shop for their collision repair.

2014 The small town feel of Prosper, coupled with the progressive growth in this history-rich town made it a perfect choice for the third location of The Body Shop.

In 2015, The Body Shop Collision Repair was recognized by the Prosper Chamber of Commerce as “Best New Business of the Year”.

2016 Celebrating 40 years in business and currently employing 90 people, our highly skilled technicians and dedicated employees have made it possible for TBS to achieve the longevity and reputation as a preferred collision repair facility in the communities in which we serve.
