New Auto Paint on a Chrysler Sebring Convertible

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible. There isn't a better car for boulevard cruising on a hot summer night. Okay, okay, so you think the 1973 Buick Centurion is better. We won't argue. The point is 4 seat convertibles are a special breed. Owners cherish them and the rest of us look on with envy.

2000 Plymouth Neon Re-Paint!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2000 Plymouth Neon with lots of peeling paint. Many cars of this era are affected by "Delaminating Paint" a condition where the top layer of paint fails after years of exposure to outside elements, causing it to peel, flake, fade, crack, etc.  Peeling or "Delaminating" paint must be removed in order for our new paint to stick to the car! We sanded down all of the bad factory paint, applied a primer sealer, painted this Neon with our basic enamel paint, and returned it to its owner shiny and new again!

2001 Chrysler Pt Cruiser Paint Job!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2001 Chrysler Pt Cruiser.  This car has some history with its owners, it was the first "Pt" in the Fremont area! The cars owners have a deep attatchment to this car and did not want to have their "baby" driving around with peeling paint any longer! The paint material that was chosen for this "mopar" was our "Base Coat / Clear Coat" 2 stage paint, and to finish off the look the owners decided to have us "Wetsand and Polish" the car.  The polishing process is a very intricate, time consuming job, our detailer spent many hours smoothing this paint to an extremely glossy glass like finish! This Chrysler will look great for years to come!

24 Hours of Le Mans!

It's that time of year again, the oldest and greatest auto race in the world celebrates its 90th anniversary this weekend in Le Mans, France (June 23-24, 2013.) The race is fast and torturous. It is where the world's premier auto makers--Aston Martin, Audi, Chevrolet (Corvette), Chrysler (SRT Viper), Ferrari, Honda, Lotus, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Porsche, Toyota--come to show not only that they have the fastest, best handling, most advanced cars but in order to win, they must also be reliable and economical.

The race attracts top drivers including celebrity Patrick Dempsey who in past years has been a LeMans class leader. Audi once again captured the pole in 2013. Toyota was third fastest in qualifying with a hybrid prototype.

Unlike most races, these vehicles must run all-out for 24 hours straight without breaking down and with as few stops as possible. At 2013 speeds we can expect the leaders to travel more than 3000 miles (5000 km)

NASCAR, Formula 1 and Indycar feature straights that can be a thousand feet long. LeMans features a straightaway that is 4 miles (6 km) long followed by a series of curves, hairpin turns and shorter straights.

It is our favorite race at Almost Everything because the cars look like real cars and the technology is often a few years away from making the cars we drive everyday safer, more fun and better performing.
