The body shop can turn your debt over to a collection company, they can report this to the credit agencies and they can file suit against you to obtain a judgement.
They _might_ be able to obtain a mechanics lien and pick up your car. I'm not sure about this, though.
What would you do if your employer did not pay you after a month? Just said, sorry... I'll pay you when I have the money... see you in the morning!
