Your 1997 Ford Probe: the work
Rust repair for the 1997 Ford Probe: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your Probe
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. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year.
Getting a price
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A rental while we work
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Getting the car ready
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
Pricing, plainly
We price the job before we start, never after. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Keeping it that way
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Timing
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Talk to a person
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
