Booking the work for the Thunderbird
Book scratch repair for the 1990 Ford Thunderbird with a short request, and rent 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.
Your Thunderbird, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a quote
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A car while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Getting the car ready
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Keeping it that way
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
When the car is ready
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Why prices differ
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
