Car of the Day - 2004 Honda S2000 with Microchecked Paint


Today's car is a great little racer, the Honda S2000. This particular car looked faded because it had some poorly done bodywork and paint. The old paint was microchecking. This condition is also known as "lacquer checking." Microchecking means that the paint has started to fail and crack apart. It can be a serious condition for your car that leads to rusting and premature failure of the metal. Almost Everything Autobody stripped the car down to bare metal, re-applied primer & repainted the entire vehicle using an economical but high quality enamel.

Car of the Day - 1989 Ford Mustang Convertible Restoration

Today's car is a great older Mustang convertible. It came in with 20+ year old paint looking sad and worthless. But the body was very straight and the engine is strong. A few days later the owner vowed to drive it for another 20 years!

Maserati MC12 Beats Ferrari Enzo


We have a soft spot for Maseratis at Almost Everything Autobody. A Maserati Quattroporte is on our wish list as a shop passenger shuttle (it's been on the wish list for 3 years and counting). The Maserati MC12 happens to be one of the most beautiful cars ever made. That it is also one of the fastest is icing on the cake. This video is from our friends at Britain's Top Gear. Enjoy.

Car of the Day - 1988 Chevrolet Camaro Iroc-Z with Auto Collision repairs

Today's Car of the Day is a 1988 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z. It came to us in need of bodywork & paint. Almost Everything Autobody repaired collision damage to left & right fenders, doors and quarter panels, rear bumper and cracked windshield. We replaced the front end with a custom fiberglass unit and lights that the customer special ordered. We also repaired cracks on the fiberglass rear spoiler and replaced a tail lamp and fuel filler door. The customer changed the color from black to a BMW red metallic using Almost Everything's high-end "Signature" 2-stage paint service. He also opted to paint the door jambs, under the hood and rear hatch to complete the color change. Finally, we tinted the windows with the darkest legal tints and re-installed "IROC-Z" and "5.7 Tuned Port Injection" decals. This car came out looking really good and the customer is real happy with the results. Thanks to the owner, "AMH," for letting us work on a really great car!
