Collision repair: the 1985 GMC Pickup
The 1985 GMC Pickup needs collision repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request.
About your Pickup
As a pickup truck, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a price
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Keep driving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is ready. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Timing
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
Getting the car ready
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
How the price is set
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
Keeping it that way
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.

A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
