Your Colt and scratch repair
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 1985 Dodge Colt, and rents you a car while yours is in. 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.
What your car means for the work
As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. 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.
Your request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Stay on the road
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
How the price is set
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
When the car is ready
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Your move
Start with photos and a short description.
