PART 2 — FROM WRECKED TO THE PUPPY

This Kenworth came into the shop wrecked. Now look at her. 👀

Panel by panel, line by line, we brought this truck back to life and put the finishing touches on a build that was made to turn heads.

And when it was finally done… we had to give her a name.

THE PUPPY 🐶

You asked, we answered.

On today's episode of Coffee & Collision, Rob answers a question that was sent in from one of our viewers who wanted to know if trucks are washed after being repaired.

At Elizabeth Truck Center, we perform a thorough detailing on every truck that comes through our doors for a repair, both inside and out.

FROM WRECKED TO REFINED. THIS IS WHAT A COMEBACK LOOKS LIKE.

Western Star came through our doors with a front end and cab that needed serious attention.

We tore into it and brought it back piece by piece rebuilding the front end, restoring the body, laying down a complete fresh paint job, and finishing it with custom pinstriping that takes the truck to another level.

This wasn’t about making it look good. It was about making it look unforgettable.

Every part of the process came together to turn a damaged truck into something that looks like it belongs at the front of the pack.

But we’re only showing you the beginning...
PART 1 — THE BUILD
PART 2 - THE REVEAL
And believe us.... the final look is worth the wait 👀🔥

Coffee & Collision is back with Episode 7 - and Rob is back in the driver’s seat! 🚚

This week Rob tackles a topic he gets asked about all the time in Elizabeth.

If your truck has been appraised after an accident and you feel like the full extent of the damage wasn’t accounted for, don’t panic. Bring it to the ETC team for a re-inspection to help ensure all damages are properly documented from top to bottom. 📋

True or False: A damaged truck door is "just an inconvenience."

False!

A hard-to-operate roll-up door or damaged swing door can slow deliveries, create safety concerns, and make every stop more difficult. The team at Elizabeth Truck Center of Matawan can repair or replace worn out or broken doors to keep your operation running smoothly.

Not every truck that rolls through our shop has a simple repair.

This Peterbilt came to us with extensive cab damage that required a complete teardown. What most people see as a truck that’s beyond saving, we see as an opportunity to bring it back to life.

Every stage of this rebuild takes time, precision, and attention to detail. From structural repairs and panel replacement to making sure every measurement is exactly where it belongs, there are no shortcuts when it comes to getting a truck back on the road safely and looking like it never happened.

This is just one step in the process, and we’re proud to show the work that happens behind the scenes before the paint shines and the truck is back doing what it was built to do.

Stay tuned as we take this Peterbilt from torn apart to fully rebuilt 👀🔥
