Auto Body Shop Directory vs RevCarData

Auto Body Shop Directory lists more than 81,000 collision repair and auto body shops across the United States, searchable by ZIP code, city, or coordinates. The keyless API returns JSON across five public endpoints, including city search and single-shop profile lookups. It is a free directory service with no paid tier; listings that use the data should credit AutoBodyShopNear.com.

RevCarData is a global Year-Make-Model-Trim vehicle database covering EU, US, and Asian markets, exposing 53 structured spec fields per trim — MSRP, powertrain, dimensions, and EV/battery metrics — via a REST API and CSV export. Its own OpenAPI spec puts the index at 455,000+ vehicle configurations, and a live GET against /health in this run confirmed 452,662 rows loaded. A live GET against its real API host, api.revcardata.com/api/v1/vehicles, returned a 401 "Missing X-API-Key header" error carrying access-control-allow-origin: * — reconfirming auth "API Key" and cors "yes" — over HTTPS. Its site offers a free sign-up-and-get-a-key tier alongside paid plans for higher volume — freemium.
