  • Rensselaer County native Jeff Pfeffer started Jets in 1984, on Rt. 9 in Castleton and then moved to his larger location on Rt. 20 in Nassau, just three and a half miles east of the 9 & 20 juncture. In June of 2014, with a large Columbia County clientele, he expanded and opened a second location at 2532 Route 9H in Kinderhook. He purchased the original Kinderhook Toyota buildings. Jeff and his crew continue to earn praise from customers, and car dealers, for their excellence in the body shop and with customer service. Now celebrating 40 years., Jets Truck & Auto Body has served many customers repeatedly from both Columbia and Rensselaer counties. A testament to excellence is his many repeat customers and personal referrals from auto body shops, car dealers and former customers.

    Jeff is very compassionate towards his customers, “Accidents are stressful enough to begin with,” says Jeff, “so we try to make things as stress-free as possible on our end.” He wants everyone reading this to put his phone numbers in your phone; just in case you hit a deer or get into an accident and need a tow, rental car and collision repair.

This equipment is state of the art, costing over $100,000. In both locations, it ensures the car leaves Jets Truck & Auto Body fixed and in showroom, new car specifications.

    In addition to this, they have $80,000 of frame equipment and also a new resistance welder. This new I-Spot ($24,000) welder is programmable for different manufacturers’ specifications and can weld boron steel, for instance, which is on many of the new cars. They have spent a lot to insure that they can get a person’s vehicle back to the condition it was in before a collision.

The air is directed from the ceiling into the pit and gives a much better finish to the vehicles. Jeff and his crew want every owner to walk out of their shop pleased with the results of their repair.

    "Jeff and Crew: Thank you for the outsanding work you did on our 2004 Rav 4. It looks as good or better than it did coming off the storeroom floor. And thank you for working so closely with the insurance adjuster. You made a bad thing relatively painless."
