Paint touch up for the 1981 Ford F-350
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 1981 Ford F-350, 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
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a car, it is a straightforward size for this work. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
How to request it
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Ask anything about the work in the request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
A rental while we work
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Planning around the work
Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
How the price is set
The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
