40+ Years Serving Dallas/Fort Worth Clients
The Beginning
In 1980, during his senior year in high school, Stuart purchased his first car, a ’69 El Camino. Upon enrolling in a Paint & Body class so that he could paint the Chevy coupe a new color, he discovered that he had a knack for auto painting. He went on to apprentice at Larry Loftis Paint & Body in Plano, Texas.
Opportunity
Naturally, as an apprentice Stuart started by sweeping the floors and emptying trash cans, but was soon promoted to painting cars within his first year of employment. In 1983, he had developed a following and opened his first garage in east Plano where he was the sole employee. His first big opportunity came when he was given the opportunity to paint Sid’s (the owner of Sid’s Automotive in Dallas, TX, at that time) Mercedes Benz.
40+ Years
Sid was so impressed with Stuart’s work that he began referring Porsche and numerous other high-end clients to him. The rest is history! Stuart’s Paint & Body, Inc. is Porsche-, Maserati- and Subaru-Certified, BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, I-CAR Platinum and ASE Certified. After nearly four decades in business, we continue to care for each client and their vehicle as if it is our own.
