Side-Swiped Aston Martin
What would you do if you found your car sideswiped in a garage? Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is an Aston Martin DBS and if it happened to us, we'd be gleeful that we owned an Aston Martin! Then, of course, we'd be rather upset! Wonder if this can be fixed for less than our $1000 deductible? Uh. . . probably not.
Lamborghini's 50th Anniversary
Almost Everything Auto Body Repair & Paint celebrates the 50th anniversary of the October 30, 1963 founding of Automobili Ferruccio Lamborghini S.p.A. We've collected photos of some of our favorite Lamborghinis. Some have been gorgeous cars. . . and some we would be hard pressed to call beautiful but were none-the-less brutally fast and always fascinating.

Ferruccio Lamborghini didn't make his fortune by selling exotic sports cars. He made it selling these. . .

| 1951 Lamborghini--really! |
. . . and the sports cars came later!

2000 Pontiac Grand Am Overall Paint Job!
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am. This car came to Almost Everything looking dazed and confused. Its front half was flat primer-ish looking black while the rear was gloss black. The reason for the color difference is because some body panels were replaced at some point and were never painted! We began the repainting process with all of our basics: a chemical cleaning to remove old road contaminants clinging to the paint, then masking off all of the car's windows lights and trim. This car's owner made a wise decision and chose to seal the car prior to paint with our basic primer-sealer to promote adhesion and longevity of the final finish. The car was now ready for paint. We repainted the exterior with our Enamel paint in its original color!
