PORT CHARLOTTE, FL (January 24, 2023) — The National Auto Body Council Body® is proud to announce that the Collision Advice Legacy Group Spartan 300 has joined the collision repair industry’s premier philanthropic organization as a level one partner. As a level one partner, Collision Advice and members of the Spartan Group will work alongside an elite consortium of collision repair facilities, rental car companies, parts and materials providers, insurance companies, automotive recyclers, salvage companies, towing companies, industry consultants and more to serve communities across the country with programs that help change and save lives every day.
“We are honored to welcome Collision Advice and its Legacy Group Spartan 300 members to the National Auto Body Council® at our highest level of partnership,” said Scott Sampley, chairman of the NABC®. “Collision Advice and Mike Anderson are known throughout the industry for vision, leadership and commitment to excellent performance. We look forward to having them engaged in our NABC Recycled Rides® program, NABC First Responder Emergency Extrication™ initiative and NABC® Drive Out Distraction project, as well as our NABC® golf fundraisers and annual NABC® awards programs.”
The purpose of the Legacy Group Spartan 300 is to bring together like-minded individuals to take a stand for safe and proper repairs and change the course of history. It works to connect these collision repair leaders three times a year in small group, in-person meetings; hosts monthly training webinars to sharpen the skills of shop staff and keep them battle ready; offers 30-minute weekly coaching calls, and many more resources; offers a totally independent forum that acts outside of paint manufacturer or other vendor influences; and includes access to industry leader, Mike Anderson of Collision Advice, and his team.
“As a former shop owner who participated in both NABC Recycled Rides® and the NABC First Responder Emergency Extrication™ programs, it is an absolute honor to be able to partner and collaborate with NABC® and my Collision Advice Spartan 20 Groups to continue this amazing journey of giving back on a larger scale,” said Anderson. “Thank you NABC® for allowing our Collision Advice Spartan 20 groups to expand this amazing service you are providing to give back to the world on a larger scale.”
