Another Exotic Car Immolates Itself
Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a Ferrari F430 Spyder. We've had a recent facination with absurdly expensive sports cars turning themselves to ashes. This one was parked in Florida when WreckedExotics.com says it "spontaneously combusted." Somehow reminds us of the song "I'm Too Sexy." These cars have so much potential that sometimes they just can't contain it and suddenly blow up without warning.
Thanks to WreckedExotics.com for the photos. Look for more exotic car mayhem at their site!

1986 Panel Van Transformation!
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1986 Chevrolet van. Somebody decided to try their hand at a free paint job for the owners of this van, apparently not everybody shares the same taste in automotive finishes as the "artists" that painted this Chevy before us, and its owners had enough. They came to our shop looking to not break their bank, yet leave with great looking paint job. They decided on our "Enamel" paint material in a metallic turquoise picked right out of our color sample book! Before we could apply any paint to the van we removed all of the graffiti, rock chips, peeling paint, and other unsightly surface imperfections. Once the sanding was complete we applied a primer sealer, painted the entire exterior of the van, cleaned up all of the old spray paint from the chrome handles and returned the transformed Chevy back to its pleased owners!

Bob Marley's Bimmer
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1973 BMW Bavaria. Rumor has it that this very car was driven by Mr. Bob Marley years ago, supposedly he didn't care that this was the most luxurious BMW of its day, he bought it because he thought the BMW name stood for "Bob Marley and the Wailers." Years have since gone by and his car came to our shop with a new owner, and lots of bad paint and old rust holes. We repaired and smoothed all of the imperfections that the car's owner wanted gone, sanded down all of the old chipping paint, sealed the car with a primer and finally we repainted the Bavaria in its original blue color! We are not 100% certain that this was actually Bob Marley's BMW, but we like to believe that the rumor is true!

Could it be the same car?
Eeeeehhhh, close enough.
Note: the current owner claims that he purchased the car at Marley's old recording studio in San Francisco and local residents told him that it was the car that Marley used while in San Francisco.
