Rust repair: the 1987 Dodge Lancer
Need rust repair for your 1987 Dodge Lancer? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking a time
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Keeping it that way
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Why prices differ
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Timing
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
What to bring
Ask any question you have before the work starts. 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.
Still deciding?
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
