Unlike a tire that sud-
denly blows out with a
loud bang, worn shock ab-
sorbers can fail with little
advance warning, Yet
when shocks fail, the re-
sults can be just as peri-
lous as a blow-out.
To avoid such a danger,
ask your service man to
check shocks every time
the car is on the hoist
for a lube job or similar
service.
This is particularly im-
portant if your present
shocks have more than
20,000 miles of wear on
them.
A swish in time with a spray paint gun is likely
to save some expensive repairs later. By taking
care of minor nicks, scratches and dents as soon
as they become noticeable, ainotorist can avoid
premature deterioration of his car's body. All of
which makes the car more valuable at trade-in
time. (DeVilbiss Co. Photo)

Repairs a 'Must' to Preserve Car Bodies
Good Local Body Shop
Will Have What It
Takes to Do Job
Have you recently taken a
really good look at the finish
on ,your car? Studies by lead-
ing automotive service maga-
zines found three out of every
four cars are in need of body
repair and/or touch-up work.
When checking your car,
chances are you'll find finish
defects ranging from minor
stone-nicks to more sizeable
scratches, scrapes, or dents,
Cloy, urination may even
produt evidence of more seri-
ous damage with rust appear-
4-ig in the rocker panels, lower
portion of fenders, or at. other
points.
This time of year is an espe-
cially important one to make
needed repairs, For winter
road conditions take a harsh
toll of car bodies. ,
Costing You Money
Regardless of the origina-
tion or extent of the present
damage, it's costing you money
every day it goes unattended,
Once paint is chipped away
and bare metal is exposed,
corrosive action begins and
will continue to grow until
arrested and eliminated by
repair.
Metal deterioration can also
occur from beneath the tar.
This usually goes undetected
until rust appears on the out-
side surface after corroding
the metal behind. (Under-
coating will, in most cases,
prevent the start of this latter
form of corrosion) .
In either case, the longer
the damage is neglected, the
more extensive and time con-
suming the repair becomes,
thus increasing your repair
bill.
Once you're ready for re-
pairs, Your next and most Ina-
portarit step is to locate a rep-
utable auto body repair and
refinishing shop — one that
has adequate facilities, mod-
ern equipment, and experi-
enced personnel to do the job.
What Shop Can Do
Such a shop will Shave ample
parking and work space; mod-
ern metal working tools; qual-
ity spray equipment; spray
booth With proper exhaust for
dust-free paint jobs; force dry
(infrared) equipment for dry-
ing fresh paint in minutes as
opposed to hours with air dry;
factory trained spray opera-
tors.
A shop with these qualifica-
tions can assure you of a first-
rate, 'professional job in the
shortest possible time.
Don't settle for a 50% job at
a bargain basement price from
a shop that has makeshift fa-
tilities. It'll probably cost you
more in the long run through
costly re-work at a later date.
When the original beauty
has been restored to your car,
don't be misled into believing
it to be permanent. New dam-
age is likely to occur at some
future date and Corrosion will
once again attempt its ugly
deed.
Periodic checks and contin-
uous, proper maintenance are
your only assurance of pro-
longing the original finish life.
Do this faithfully and you'll
derive the many benefits from
• owning, driving, trading, or
selling a clean, rust-free car.
