Your 1985 Ford F-250: the work
For the 1985 Ford F-250, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. 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
As a pickup truck, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What happens after you ask
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Driving while yours is in
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Why prices differ
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. We price the job before we start, never after. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
How long it takes
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
Before you drop the car off
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.

Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
