The work on your 900
For paint work on the 1984 Saab 900, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What happens after you ask
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Keep your week on track
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
When the car is ready
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
What affects the price
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. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Keeping it that way
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
One more step
A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
