Your 1985 Ford E350 Van: the work
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 1985 Ford E350 Van, 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.
Size and finish
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. As a van, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. There are 10 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking a time
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Stay on the road
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Timing
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Pricing, plainly
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Looking after it afterwards
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Before you drop the car off
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
