Rio Grande Valley body shop

Any recommendations for a good body shop in the RGV? This forum has always been a big help for this Winter Texan.
  • Highly recommend Bert Ogden in Mission. Did an excellent job of repairing the front of my class A when a fellow camper ran into the motorhome. Was also able to arrive the day before the repair and park near their RV service area and also stayed there the night after the repair was done.

    Our toad, a Chevy Cobalt, was side-swiped last winter. Bert Ogden Chev on Brian Rd @ Exp 83 did the repairs. The only delay related to an unacceptable door skin being shipped and a second shipment was required. Their staff worked well with the other party's insurance company and obtained prompt approvals.

    We would recommend them.

    A few years back we had a major mishap with our Class A - the gas island was the winner! We basically pried the rear cap off and several thousand dollars later, Bert Ogden had it looking like new again. The work was done quickly even though this happened over the
    Christmas season.

    This dealership is huge and has many service bays and a paint shop that can accommodate very large units. Give them a chance to quote on your work.
  • Last year a friend got T-boned in his Ford 1 ton. Got hauled to Bogus Ford. They did good work, but it took a long time before he got it back. Had to raise a little heck with the manager even before things got moving.
  • We used Steve Reyes Paint & Body in Mercedes a few years ago, and were very pleased with their work.
  • Bert Ogden, from others reports, I have not used them.
