Our Story

A father, a son, and a shop the Valley keeps coming back to.

Family-owned in the Central Valley since 1976 — three generations of Dockstader collision craftsmanship.

A father, a son, and a shop the Valley keeps coming back to.

Fresno Body Works was founded in 1976 by Jeff and Clynn "Doc" Dockstader — a father-and-son team who believed in hard work and keeping the customer happy. Through constant training and investment in the best equipment, Fresno Body Works became the premier collision repair business in Fresno.

Today the third generation of Dockstaders carries that tradition forward. We hold strong relationships with most major insurance carriers and local auto dealers, and we've grown to four Central Valley locations to serve the collision repair needs of Fresno and Clovis.
