The work on your Lynx

The 1983 Mercury Lynx needs scratch repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.

About your Lynx

A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

Your request

We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.

Keep your week on track

While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.

What goes into a quote

We price the job before we start, never after. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.

Planning around the work

Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.

What to bring

Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Ask any question you have before the work starts. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.

After the work

Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
