Rust repair: the 1985 GMC C7
Searching for rust repair for the 1985 GMC C7? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking a time
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request.
A rental while we work
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Pricing, plainly
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
How long it takes
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
A few things first
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Talk to a person
Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
