Your 1985 Subaru GL: the work

Your 1985 Subaru GL needs collision repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work.

Size and finish

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.

Booking the work

Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.

Your car is in; you are not stuck

Add a rental to the same request as the work. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.

How the price is set

A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.

How long it takes

Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. We keep you posted if the timing changes.

After the work

Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.

What to bring

Ask any question you have before the work starts. 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.

Over to you

A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
