It’s Freezing. Well, It’s Christmas in Chicago.

If it is Christmas and this is Chicago, then it will probably be freezing.  We can say that because the average temperature in the Windy City on December 25th is 32 degrees.  That’s exactly freezing (or 0 degrees centigrade for those Chicagoans who use that measuring system).  By the way, the average low at night is in the teens.

The warmest temperature around here was a balmy 64 degrees in 1982, but just one year later the thermometer dropped to 17 below zero.  That’s Fahrenheit NOT Celsius!  If we turn back the clock some 70 years, the high was 39 and the low was 31.  On that Christmas Day 1949 the Chicago area received just over a third of an inch of precipitation.

Way back in 1949 our patriarch Joseph Bellocchio Sr. had been repairing damaged vehicles at Arrow Body and Fender for more than a year.  Then, there were about 25 million registered vehicles on America’s roadways.  Today, there are about 275 million!  Merry Christmas from all of us at Arrow Body and Fender of Elmwood Park to all of you.

You Are Set For Life.

That sounds comforting doesn’t it?  Not many people can say that, but when an auto body shop in Chicagoland repairs your car it should be set for life (at least the body work).  When a car owner has a vehicle repaired after a car wreck, typically they look over the area that was damaged to see how well the repairs were made.  Then the car is taken for a ride to make sure everything is operating as it was prior to the accident.

A lifetime warranty means a company will guarantee the work performed on your vehicle for as long as you own that car.  If for any reason, the repairs do not hold up or there is an issue, you can go back to that body shop and have the repairs fixed at no cost to you.  A great auto body shop with a wonderful reputation stands behind that lifetime warranty.

Reputation is not handed out thoughtlessly…it is earned.  Arrow Body and Fender of Elmwood Park has earned that reputation!  It started with Joe Sr. over seven decades ago and continues today.  You can always trust your damaged vehicle to Arrow Body and Fender.  Just call (708) 456-9424 or have it towed to 7536 West Grand Ave. in Elmwood Park.
