I used to use Rodi's many years ago, but had a bad problem & quit using them. After that, I used the body shop connected to Cherry Hill Toyota, but I saw other cars besides Toyotas there. It's been a while, so I don't know it that's still the case. They were reasonable when I used them.
Fanelle's in Collingswood (on route 130) is really great. I've been going their consistently. They won't suggest services your car doesn't need, if you're on a budget will prioritize for you what's most important to get done, and if they don't do something right the first time - will continue to work (at no charge to you) until the problem is solved. I've been beyond pleased with the work they've done for me and their honesty. They replaced something for me on my car and it turned out the replacement part was faulty (the manufacturer sent them a faulty part). Long story short, they took my car back and worked on it for hours and didn't charge me a dime.

Didn't catch that he wanted body work...was under the impression he was looking for general repair. Not sure about that...I've never had body work done to my car.
Thanks for the info everyone.It's my son's 1st car,92 Ford Taurus,good running car.He was rear-ended on 295 in April.We got a check yesterday from the other guy's ins.co.We want to buy the rear bumper,taillight assembly & a panel from a scrap yard,then take it to a local mom & pop body shop to get the work done.Does John's Auto Body in Collingswood still exist today?I think an old friend of mine use to work there many moons ago,lol.Thinking about calling Walt's in Camden next week to see if they can help me with getting the parts.
I'm not sure about John's in Collingswood, last I went by there it didn't look like they were open. I've used Beacon on 130 in Pennsauken in the past and was pleased with their work. They were also open to "alternatives" with the repairs on my Mustang. They are definitely a mom and pop place and are unaffiliated with insurance companies.

I know this is a late post but I believe John's in Collingswood on Cuthbert is now [url=http://collisionmax.com]CollisionMax[/url]. They're kinda big but family owned.

Ah, I didn't realize that the place that became Collision Max used to be John's. I thought he was referring to the place across the street from Elmer's on Route 130, which while not technically in Collingswood, was close enough, lol.
