Arranging the work for the B600
Need a diagnostic check for the 1982 Ford B600? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Before the shop sees your B600
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
Our part and the shop's part
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Your rental while you wait
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Car care, briefly
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
What to ask
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Still deciding?
Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request car diagnostics
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
