No job too little for Almost Everything Autobody

Today's Car of the Day is a 60's Volkswagen Bug toy car that came in need of a paint job. The customer has had this car in the family for about 20 years, and decided to give it to his soon to be 3 year old grandson as his birthday present. Almost Everything Autobody removed all mechanical parts, and bumpers off the car, sanded the old paint and surface rust off the car and painted with the Signature paint service that comes with full clear coat and 5 year warranty.

New Driver Catches Air--Lands on Neighbor's Ferrari. . . In the Garage

Thanks again to our buddies at WreckedExotics.com for this little nugget. The car on the bottom was a 2003 Ferrari 360 Modena. The truck appears to be a Ford F150 Stepside. We'd hate to see this kid's insurance bill. The good news is the garage door & the Ferrari seem to have provided a soft landing. The story goes that a young man got the truck up to a good speed as he was coming over a hill. The truck flew off the hill and into this garage.

Attrocity: 10 Mazda Cosmo Sports Dying in a Japanese Field

This horrifying photo is courtesy of Komin's Photo Blog. Komin found 10 very rare Mazda Cosmos lined-up in a field, rotting. The Cosmo was Mazda's first Wankel rotary engined car and the first production 2-rotor Wankel in the world. Almost Everything Autobody has listed it as one of the Most Beautiful Cars Ever Made. Mazda produced the original Cosmo series from 1967 to 1972 and a total of only 1519 were built. Only 2 exist in the USA, with Late Night Show's Jay Leno owning one of them. Someone needs to save what's left of these cars. If you can ship one to us, we'd be happy to help!
