Kosmetic Kar Doctor was a dream
that became a reality for Randy Eggimann back in 1985. It all started in a
small, single bay shop at his house in Gordonville,
MO. A mere 2 years later, in
1987, with a lot of time and work invested into his dream, Randy had to expand
into a considerably larger, 3 bay shop, still at his house in Gordonville. As time
will tell, when a dream is nurtured and well fed, it will grow. Kosmetic Kar
Doctor was now growing in leaps
and bounds. In 2000, Kosmetic Kar Doctor had to move from
Gordonville to its present location at 524 E. Jackson Blvd., into a much larger
building with 7 bays and a side draft paint booth. Still
being nurtured and well fed, the very next year, 2001, Kosmetic Kar Doctor had
to add on a 40x80 addition with a new down draft paint booth.
In 2007, Kosmetic Kar Doctor bought its first tow
truck so that customers vehicles could be towed in if need be. A
full time wrecker driver was brought into the Kosmetic Kar Doctor family in
October of 2008. This has turned out to be a very good investment and a second
tow truck, a flatbed this time, was purchased in January of 2009 opening up the
options of even more vehicles could be brought in. Even more recently, in July
2009, another tow truck, soon to bring the total up to 3, has been brought into
the active and growing fleet for full service towing and recoveries as well as roadside assistance work.
There will be 2 more fulltime wrecker operators brought into the family
shortly, both with extensive histories and experience in the towing and
recovery business.
One may think that as much as Kosmetic Kar Doctor has grown, that the customers
are just numbers, rest assured, they are not. Every customer is met with first
hand, by the owner of the business, Randy Eggimann, and by the shop manager,
Teddy Eggimann. Yes, business is good and is constantly growing, but we are
still a family owned and operated, small local business, and we treat every
customer as family.
