Your 1986 Subaru XT: the work
Your 1986 Subaru XT needs rust repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
From request to appointment
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Keep driving meanwhile
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. A rental means the work does not stop your week. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
What to bring
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
How long it takes
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
After the work
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
Why prices differ
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
One more step
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
