Six decades of fixing Kansas City’s little wagons.
Long before chains and franchises, Santa Fe Body was helping local drivers recover from accidents. We still do it the same way: honestly, carefully and one car at a time.
Built on the Santa Fe Trail spirit.
Santa Fe Body opened its doors in 1963, taking its name from the historic Santa Fe Trail that once carried covered wagons through Johnson County. Our wagon-driving mascot and the promise on our roadside sign — “We’ll fix your little wagon” — have greeted drivers on Lenexa Drive for generations.
Over the years cars have changed dramatically, and so have the tools and techniques to repair them. What hasn’t changed is how we treat people: like neighbors who just had a really bad day.
Today our team helps customers navigate the stressful, time-consuming aftermath of an accident — from the first estimate through the insurance claim to the moment you drive away.
A Lenexa Drive landmark.
