Booking the work for the RX-7
CarmaCars takes requests for rust repair on the 1981 Mazda RX-7, and rents you a car while yours is in. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
The car itself
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a quote
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Need a car meanwhile?
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 means the work does not stop your week. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Aftercare
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
How the price is set
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
On the day
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
How long it takes
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
