About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Texas Collision Centers and asked the mechanic, ‘Do you fix cars or just make them look like they’ve been in accidents?’ The mechanic smiled and replied, 'We fix cars, sir—we just don't always tell them how bad it was.' The delivery driver nodded knowingly, thinking of his own scratched-up truck, parked right outside.

2. A little boy walked into Texas Collision Centers one afternoon, pointing excitedly at a sign in the window. ‘Daddy,’ he said, ‘why does it say “Collision” if they fix cars?’ The mechanic smiled and replied, ‘Son, when your daddy brings his car here for repairs, it’s like there was a little collision—we make everything look brand new again!’ The boy nodded thoughtfully, then ran outside to show his friend, who just happened to be a delivery driver, explaining what he learned.

3. In an ordinary day at Texas Collision Centers, a delivery driver brought in a box of parts. Among them was a peculiar item—a tiny plastic dinosaur that kept appearing on different workbenches throughout the week. No one knew whose it was or how it got there. Finally, someone noticed that every time the dinosaur showed up, so did a new package from a mysterious ‘Mr. Rex’—complete with a note saying, ‘Thanks for taking such good care of my little friend!’ Turns out, it was just a friendly neighborhood kid who loved watching cars get fixed.

4. One night, a curious dog wandered into Texas Collision Centers, sniffing around the workshop with wide eyes. Mechanics watched as it approached a pile of mismatched fenders, its tail wagging curiously. Suddenly, an old mechanic whistled softly, and the dog froze in surprise. With a gentle pat on the head, he said, 'Hey, little guy, you're not supposed to be here.' The dog wagged his tail even harder, clearly enjoying himself. That night, everyone in the shop agreed that maybe the place needed more canine visitors—after all, who could resist such good company?
