Fixing Dings, Dents and Damage in the Capital Region

The Goldstein Auto Group is growing once again! Our body shop is known for its superior collision repair work, so we get calls from many customers and businesses who need repair services. To keep up with demand, we're expanding our collision repair business into a new state-of-the-art building. Opening Soon on Central Avenue in Albany, our new building will have the latest in vehicle body repair technology along with our great body shop team.

Large room in Goldstein Collision Center

This large area will soon be filled with cars, trucks and SUVs needing body work.

Professional Body Work - Better Than A Plunger!

In the old days, the old plunger trick might mostly remove a simple dent from the side of a vehicle. That was a long time ago. Modern vehicles are tougher and more styled. When you get a dent or something more serious, you should have a professional team repair it correctly. You want your car, truck or SUV to look its best after an accident, and the Goldstein Collision Center is staffed with the best team in the Albany area.

The paint booth is in the center of our new building. Of course, the body work is just part of the job. You also want back the shiny red paint or blue clear coat that caught your eye. Our professional paint team has a new, large, paint booth and they are ready to make your car look as good as new again. We use water-based paints that are eco-friendly and paint matching equipment so it matches from hood to trunk.

We are the Body Shop Collision Experts Choose

At the Goldstein Collision Center, we understand how important it is to get your vehicle back on the road as quickly as possible and done right the first time. You have a lot of options in choosing where to get your vehicle repaired. Maybe your insurance company has a contract with another collision center that they recommended to you. That doesn't mean you can't bring it to us! We work with many insurance companies, which use us for direct repairs. Other dealerships in the area use the Goldstein Collision Center to repair their vehicles as well.

The new Goldstein Collision Center is designed from the bottom up, to be the best body shop in the area.

Fixed and Back on the Road

We use only top quality parts to repair your vehicle. Our Certified Repair Specialists take pride in restoring your vehicle to its pre-accident condition. We know that having an accident on your report can reduce your investment when it's time to trade that vehicle in. By letting us do the repairs, your investment will be up to manufacturers standards, but also with quality equipment and parts. We are so confident in our work, that we back our auto body repairs with a Lifetime Warranty.

Pets Find New Homes at Goldstein Auto Group

Every month, some furry friends make their way from a shelter to a showroom. It's the Pet Adoption Clinics at Goldstein Auto Group! The Goldstein Auto Group works with the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society throughout the year, to spread the word about animals available for adoption. We also support their over 130 year mission to shelter and assist abused, lost and unwanted animals in our area. They do great work! [gallery columns="2" ids="171,170,168,169"] Furry Friends In March 2017, the Pet Adoption Clinic was at Goldstein Subaru. Our special guests were a hound named Priscilla, and cats named Calico and Mamie. Each cute, cuddly and ready to adopt. The pets during our clinics are ready to take home that day. And during the clinic, you can stop in to get more information about the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society. The Mohawk Hudson Humane Society works because of donations and volunteers. There's a lot of work to be done, and thousands of cats and dogs, bunnies and even rats have made their way to the shelter and found new homes because of their dedication and your dollars. At Goldstein Auto Group, we've made it easy to our customers to donate, by dropping off empty cans and bottles for our "Empties for Animals" program. Every penny from this program goes to the shelter - the shelter that is expanding this year! They Need Your Help The Mohawk Hudson Humane Society is working on a new building that will give the animals more room, more comfort and less stress. It gives the shelter more opportunities to work with the community and provide programs, like dog training. Please read more about the new building here: https://mohawkhumane.org/imagine.html They welcome your donations, by the nickel as a bottle deposit, or by your dollars. The Goldstein Family enjoys every moment working with this great non-profit. Watch our Facebook pages for upcoming adoption clinics every month at a Goldstein location... except... The Gala There won't be an adoption clinic during April because of the big 10th Annual Gala for Animals! This fun event will take place on April 22nd, 2017. You can find out more and get your tickets here: https://mohawkhumane.org/gala2017.html
