Did you know we are the only locally owned auto body shop in Grass Valley that is Ford Aluminum Certified?

That means we have the specialized training, equipment, and proper facility required to repair your Ford trucks, cars, and SUVS to Ford's high standards.

Aluminum vehicles require a different repair process than traditional steel vehicles. The metal is more sensitive to heat, straightening, sanding, and welding, and improper techniques can weaken or damage the vehicle. Even cross-contamination from tools used on steel can lead to galvanic corrosion-which is why aluminum repairs require dedicated tools, equipment, and work areas.

Ford has strict requirements for equipment, facilities, and technician training to ensure aluminum vehicles are repaired properly and safely. At Tripp's Auto Body, we work hard to stay current with those requirements so you can feel confident your vehicle is in the right hands.

From a minor scratch to a major collision, we have the experience, equipment, and expertise to get your Ford back on the road the right way.

Did you know we’ve been repairing vehicles in Nevada County for over 70 years?

Tripp’s Auto Body was founded by Arlie Weslie Tripp in 1954. He moved to Nevada County after previously living in Oregon and relocating with his wife, Clara, and their five children (later welcoming a sixth child, Darrol Tripp).

The shop was originally located at 127 Stewart Street in the heart of Grass Valley as pictured in the aerial photo below.

After three generations of family ownership, we feel incredibly blessed and grateful for each and every customer who walks through our doors!
