The Fabel Story

Founded in 1991 by Scott and Debbie Fabel, Fabel Repair & Collision Center was built on a vision to provide high-quality truck, automotive, and collision repair services to the Fox Valley and surrounding communities.

After graduating from Northwood University in Midland, Michigan with a degree in Automotive Marketing, Scott Fabel spent years working alongside his father in the family truck dealership business. Through that experience, he recognized a growing need for a trusted, full-service truck and collision repair facility in Northeast Wisconsin — leading to the creation of Fabel Repair & Collision Center.

What began as one location in Appleton has continued to grow over the years. In 2011, Fabel’s expanded with a second location in Waupaca. In 2019, the company opened a state-of-the-art collision repair facility in Appleton, followed by an expansion of the Waupaca location in 2021 and the opening of Fabel Truck Sales. In 2024, the company continued its growth with the addition of a full trailer repair facility at the collision center facility.

Today, Fabel Repair & Collision Center remains family-owned and operated, serving customers throughout Appleton, Waupaca, and Northeast Wisconsin. As one of the region’s largest independent repair centers, Fabel Repair has built its reputation on quality workmanship, dependable service, and strong customer relationships. Our continued success is driven by the dedicated people behind our company and our commitment to getting customers back on the road safely and efficiently.
