Auto Body Repair
Our skilled technicians restore vehicles to pre-accident condition using advanced frame straightening equipment and precision paint matching. We replace or repair damaged panels, bumpers, and structural components while maintaining factory specifications. Customers benefit from seamless fittings, durable finishes, and a limited lifetime warranty on all repairs.
Hail Repair (PDR)
Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) removes hail damage and minor dents without repainting. Our technicians use specialized tools to reshape metal panels, preserving original paint and vehicle value. This cost-effective solution typically completes repairs within one hour, requiring vehicles to arrive clean for accurate assessment.
Computerized Alignments
Precision alignment services restore proper tire contact using computer-guided equipment. We correct camber, caster, and toe angles to manufacturer specifications, improving handling and extending tire life. This service includes a digital alignment report for customer transparency.
A/C Repair
Our mechanics diagnose and repair automotive air conditioning systems, including refrigerant recharging and component replacement. We ensure optimal cooling performance through pressure testing and leak detection, maintaining cabin comfort during Missouri's hot summers.
Brakes
Comprehensive brake maintenance includes pad replacement, rotor resurfacing, and hydraulic system inspections. Our technicians use manufacturer-recommended parts to ensure stopping power and safety. Services come with a limited lifetime warranty on parts and labor.

My motor home outside right mirror was damaged at a nearby campground. I couldn't continue my trip without it. Bill and his team at Perry Legend repaired it right away. They did an excellent job and the price was reasonable. I was able to continue on my way. I highly recommend them.

Wonderful service! I had just moved here from out of state and found out I needed to get a car inspection. After trying various places, I was able to get it done here with very nice people and a reasonable price. I will remember them when I need other service done on my car.

We hit a deer and haven't had to get body work done in a LONG time so we called to get an estimate. My Dad took it there since I work full time. JENNIFER called before my Dad even made it back and very rudely accused me of taking our vehicle from shop to shop. I tried to explain to her that we didn't know what to do and just wanted an estimate. Wouldn't have my windshield wiper fluid filled at this shop for the way I was treated. Had to give at least 1 star to submit the review but they don't deserve that. Save your time for people who are willing to treat you kindly.

I had been walking and went there to wait for a ride. They were wonderful! It was close to 5 p.m. I told them I could sit outside and wait. But they would have nothing of it. The ladies & their darling dog stayed till my ride arrived.

The team are Perry Legend were just wonderful. Super professional and quick to get back to me. My dad wrecked his truck during all the snow and ice. Jennifer even took the time to take his groceries out and store them in their fridge so they didn't spoil and I could come get them. Thank you folks! Service: Body & Trim
