Kyle Engelke Email & Phone Number

Im a collision and body technician, I am currently working at a dealership doing their A tech work and helping to blueprint and ensure estimates are on par with the repairs needed to allow for as little supplements as possible for good shop cycle times. I have frame and body pulling experience, with a body buddy speed puller and a car-o-liner frame machine along with familiarity with all the attachments and the use of logic and strategy for proper structural retainment of said vehicle. i am also "chief" certified for use with their laser lock measuring system through an indepth course through BCCC. im skilled with a prospot welder for dent pulling and pinch welding, as well as the repair and maintenance of such machines. I have done rear body panels, door, roof, and side panel skins, quarter panels, rockers, floor panels, trunk panels, inner structure and window sils, as well as panel reconstruction and sectioning. I am familiar with OEM guidelines and procedures, and have completed all ICAR written courses. I am Ford certified and a part of the STARS program. I am able to complete a job from start to finish, and am also responsible for the disassemble and reassemble of customer vehicles, laying mud, and blocking. I pride myself on myetal work, and have spend many long hours getting my panel repairs as close to perfect as possible with using as little filler as possible. I am proficient using slide hammers, stud guns, rivet guns, bridge pullers and minor full panel design. I am also responsible for all paint correction within the dealership, ranging from wet sanding and buffing, to pinstripes and decals. I can also do some minor wiring, splicing harnesses, add on lights and equipment. I put my full effort into every job I touch from the time it's dropped off, to the parts that go into the repair, to the quality of the repairs down to the primer, and only put out a finished product I can be proud to stamp my name into. I try to shoot for one hundred percent every single time, from a fender repair, to a side swipe, or a front or rear end collision, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right!
