Auto paint: the 1981 Saab 900

Your 1981 Saab 900 and paint work: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.

Size and finish

As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

Booking the work

Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.

A rental meanwhile

Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.

A few things first

Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.

Why prices differ

The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.

Aftercare

Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.

How long you are without it

If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
