Auto paint for the 1997 Chevrolet Corvette
Your 1997 Chevrolet Corvette needs paint work? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. The length is 4.56 m. It fits most condo and driveway spots. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a price
You can add a rental to the same request. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
Keep your week on track
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Timing
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
How the price is set
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
What to bring
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
