It's like Deja vu all over again!


Back in February of 2016 we had two cool cars here for show car makeovers. The time stamp for this thread is, 02-26-2015, 04:27 PM


1971 Dodge Charger R/T - 1940 Oldsmobile Streetrod shine by Pinnacle (http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/pictures-autogeek-s-car-week/89336-1971-dodge-charger-r-t-1940-oldmobile-streetrod-shine-pinnacle.html)

Now fast forward to today, Monday, October 24th and here's what's in the garage...


The yellow car on the left is a 1940 Pontiac 5-Window Coupe and the car on the right is a 1970 340 Cuda

And both are in dire need of show car makeovers...

I took this shot today when the car arrived, all the paint looks like the second pictures.

I took this shot using the flash from my camera, all the paint on this car looks like the second picture.

I have new product testing to do and I like to use cool cars for my product reviews so I had my buddy Mike and Paul drop these off and it's just a coincidence that we had two very similar cars just about 2 years ago here at Autogeek's Show Car Garage.


So in the famous words of Yankees Hall of Famer Yogi Berra


It's like Déjà vu all over again!

Great news!

The forum software bug has been fixed. Some of you as well as myself have noticed that sometimes when you click on a thread you get a blank page?

Also, when you try to start a new thread you get the White Screen of Death. This happened when I tried to post this thread last week.


The good news is our vB Mechanic has fixed the issues with the software and the proof is I was just now able to post this thread I wrote last week.


The 1970 Cuda above is done.

You'll see a full write-up posted later plus I used it for new Griot's products being introduced.


I'll be detailing the 1940 Pontiac Coupe today testing out the new Lake Country Microfiber Pads.


Stay tuned...
