On Saturday, July 24th there will be an "Open Garage" class here at Autogeek's "Show Car Garage Studio" where we'll be doing and Extreme Makeover on Rick's 1932 Ford Highboy.

Rick, a local hot-rodder custom built this car himself with a 502 cubic inch Big Block Chevy engine with a Magnesium 8:71 Blower. Rick also painted the car himself using a basecoat/clearcoat paint system and then wet-sanded and buffed the paint but there's still some swirls leftover so we're going to help him create a show car finish on his 32 Ford Highboy.

This will be a fun project and we would like to invite a few people that want to learn how to remove swirls by machine polishing to come to Autogeek and join in the fun.

Argh, how come I am always out of town when you do these fun makeovers?

I may just have to sign up for my 2nd 101 class on the 31st to play in the show car garage!

It's aways something...

I'm hoping he'll light up those back tires for a pass or two after we're all done...
