Restoration and Bodywork

Repair Process

What is the process when you bring your car in for restoration & bodywork?

If you’ve never owned a luxury or classic car that needed serious restoration or bodywork, it’s natural to wonder what the process involves. At Gus Car Body Shop, we specialize in bringing prestige and vintage vehicles back to their original beauty — with precision craftsmanship, premium materials, and a passion for perfection. Here’s a look at how we restore your car to its showroom glory.

CALL US

From first contact to collect your vehicle:

You contact Gus Car Bodyshop: You contact us via phone/ email/ form. We will give you an appointment to visit our Bodyshop.

1 | Estimate: During estimates, the vehicle is inspected by one of our auto body repair professionals and the relevant data is entered into our computer systems. This data is compiled into an estimate that determines the cost of repairs.

2 | Insurance Approval: We will then send the data over to the insurance company for reviews and negotiations. The insurance company may decide to total the car or move forward with repairs. If we are given the green light, we will start with the auto body repair process.

3 | Disassembly: In disassembly, we will take the car apart and inspect if there are other collision damages. Often, we have to start the process over when we find new damages.

4 | Order Parts: Once we have the final approval, we order for any specialty parts. We cannot begin repairs until we have all of the structural parts.

5 | Structure Repair: During Structure Repair, we take the body of your car back to factory specification. We use all of the latest technology to rebuild, repair, and analyze all parts of your vehicle including the frame.

6 | Body Repair: The Auto Body Repair Specialists then replace all exterior panels and all metal finishing. Your vehicle will start to look like a car again with the application of sheet metal.

7 | Painting: Paint Preparation is a critical step in the refinishing process of every vehicle. We use the best paints and environmentally conscious methods to match the former glory of your car.

8 | Assembly: Any final details are put back onto your vehicle so that it becomes wholly yours again. The vehicle is checked during the process as well. It is almost complete…but not quite yet.

9 | Detailing: Before we return the car to you, it will be cleaned inside and outside and taken on a road test to make sure everything is working properly. We then go into a final inspection.

We’ll let you know the moment your vehicle is ready -then it’s time to take the wheel and enjoy it once again.
