Paint touch up: the 1985 Chevrolet Spectrum
Your 1985 Chevrolet Spectrum and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
About your Spectrum
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a quote
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Keeping it that way
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Getting the car ready
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Why prices differ
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
How long you are without it
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
