Engine repair: how we help
For engine work on your 1982 Ford C800, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Before the shop sees your C800
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare.
How the request works
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. You approve the shop's quote before any work. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A car while yours is in the shop
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
A short checklist
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Small things that help
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
