Employees


Brian Hartwig

Owner

A native to the area, Brian Hartwig completed auto body training after graduating from West Marshall High School. After several years at Wayne Larsen Collision in Ames, Brian ventured out on his own to build his shop from the ground up on Main Street in State Center in 2003. A large addition in 2012 practically doubled the shop size and added an office and customer reception area. Brian was confident the shop's steady growth would continue.

After eighteen plus years at Brian's Collision Clinic, Brian continues to offer the integrity and quality workmanship our customers have come to expect. Brian and his family enjoy their local community and the small town atmosphere State Center provides.

Dawn ..Peterson

Auto Detailer

Meet Dawn

Originally from Cedar Falls, Iowa, Dawn grew up surrounded by cars and auto work, thanks to her father’s passion for working on vehicles. In the 1990s, she and her family moved to the Hubbard-Radcliffe area, where she raised her children—now grown with families of their own. Dawn currently lives in State Center with her husband, Kevin. Before joining our team, she spent 35 years as a professional horse trainer, a career that demanded precision and a sharp eye for detail. That same meticulous approach now defines her work at the shop, where her dedication to quality and care truly stands out.
