​Angelo's father started A&M Auto Body Inc. in 1982. It was located in a shop inside another building called Ben's Auto Body located in East Boston. He started with a partner. In the beginning they were Alex and Matteo - that’s how "A&M" was born. Within a year Matteo left the business, so Alex decided to go ahead with the business on his own.​Angelo's father came from humble beginnings to owning his own shop.​That did not come without really hard work.​That work ethic has carried over to today with Angelo running the business.
