The work on your Continental
Your 1985 Lincoln Continental needs scratch repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. 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
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
From request to appointment
Ask anything about the work in the request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
A rental while we work
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
When the car is ready
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
Keeping it that way
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Before you drop the car off
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
What goes into a quote
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
Ready to ask?
Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
