This past Tuesday morning, a silver trucked rolled into a Buffalo, New York, body shop and immediately sucked the air out of the entire room. According to the body shop owner Frank Todaro, “I noticed the shop got real quiet, so I turned around and I saw this graffiti with terrible language on it. And I was like, ‘Wow is this really happening?'”
The truck was covered in racial slurs. The owner, Henry King, said the vandalism happened after an altercation he had with two neighbors that live on his street. “I really didn’t ask any questions — how, what, why. I just knew we had to get that off.” When King pulled into Collision Masters, he knew he’d brought it to the right place.
Like some sort of Formula One pit crew, eight of the shop members immediately stopped what they were working on and began rectifying the situation. The paint was removed in a little over a half an hour.
Todaro ended up posting his encounter on Facebook where it quickly went viral, being shared over 50,000 times in 3 days.

Here at theCHIVE we try to recognize humanity above all else, so we’d like to give a hats off to Collision Masters for reciprocating an evil act with kindness and a little elbow grease.
