McLeod AutoBody was founded and built in 1984 by Mark Cantrell. Prior to the establishment of this thriving collision repair business, Cantrell applied his attention to detail and exacting standards to restoring classic cars. Cantrell and his team of expert restorers worked tirelessly, preserving some of our automotive history’s greats. Several are particularly worthy of mention.
A matched set of rare Mercedes completely restored and finished in a blood red “steel” mirror surface exterior. The interior was meticulously hand crafted in elegant, soft cream buckskin leather. The combination is absolutely stunning.
- 1954 Mercedes Benz 300 S Roadster, owned by Bing Crosby
- 1954 Mercedes Benz 300 S Roadster, owned by Prince Faisal of Saudi Arabia.
Cantrell and his team of restorers really pulled out the stops on a car that was to win First Place in the World Class Division at the prestigious 39th Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance™ Classic Car Show in 1989. The “Pebble Beach” is one of the world’s most recognized classic car shows – it’s the “Olympics” of classic car competition.
- 1932 Auburn Boat Tail Speedster
Early in the 1990’s, putting aside his love for classic car restoration, Cantrell turned his attention to his collision repair business. Several of his classic car restoration team joined him. Together, they assembled another stable of experts in the trade and began applying the same exacting standards, demand for excellence, and uncompromising customer service to the collision repair business.[
McLeod AutoBody quickly rose to the forefront of the collision repair industry. In 1997, Dunn and Bradstreet conducted a survey of 57,000 collision repair shops across the United States.
McLeod AutoBody ranked 25th in the nation!
