About Lucio

Over 35 Years of Hands-On Panel Repair Experience

I'm Lucio Gangitano, and I've been fixing cars for over 35 years. What started as an apprenticeship in panel beating has turned into a lifetime of working with vehicles — from daily drivers to prestige European cars, from vintage restorations to modern collision repairs.

Why I Went Mobile

After years working in traditional panel shops, I saw an opportunity to do things differently. Most people don't want the hassle of dropping their car at a workshop, arranging alternative transport, and then waiting days (sometimes weeks) to get it back. I set up my fully equipped mobile workshop so I could come to the customer instead.

The result? My clients save time, save money (because I don't carry the overhead of a fixed premises), and get their car back the same day in most cases. It's a better deal for everyone.

What I Bring To Every Job

Experience. Over 35 years in the trade means I've seen every kind of damage on every kind of vehicle. There aren't many surprises left, and that means faster, more accurate work.

Quality materials. I use DuPont paints, 3M finishing products, and Wurth consumables. These are the same brands used by the best panel shops in Melbourne. I won't use cheap materials just because I'm working mobile.

Honesty. I'll always tell you what a job actually needs and what it'll cost. If something can be done cheaply, I'll say so. If it needs more work than you expect, I'll explain why. No upselling, no hidden costs.

A personal service. When you call me, you get me. I'm the person who answers the phone, gives you the quote, does the repair, and stands behind the work. There's no receptionist, no middleman — just a direct line to the person doing the job.

The Brands I Trust

I've chosen to work with DuPont, 3M, and Wurth because they consistently deliver the best results. Cheap paint fades, peels, and doesn't colour-match well. Premium paint lasts, blends perfectly, and looks factory-fresh for years. It's worth the investment.

Get In Touch

If you've got a scratch, dent, bumper damage, or any other panel repair need, give me a call. I'll give you an honest assessment and a fair price.
