Your Corvette and scratch repair

Book scratch repair for the 1986 Chevrolet Corvette, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.

The car itself

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.

Booking a time

Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Ask anything about the work in the request.

Keep your week on track

A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.

What to bring

Ask any question you have before the work starts. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.

After the work

Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.

What affects the price

Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.

When the car is ready

Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.

Next step

A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
