The 1981 Toyota Tercel: Auto paint

Your 1981 Toyota Tercel 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.

About your Tercel

We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.

Getting a price

Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.

A car while yours is in

Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental means the work does not stop your week. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.

Timing

You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.

Before you drop the car off

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. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.

Keeping it that way

Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.

Pricing, plainly

For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.

Get an offer

Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
