Maaco Fremont car of the day is this 1991 Toyota MR2.
The customer came to Maaco Fremont looking to make his sports car shine in the summer sun.
He wanted something glossy that would last, stand up to the heat of the summer and would not fade or start cracking like the original paint. So Maaco Fremont offered him the Supreme single stage polyurethane with a 4 year gloss warranty and Maaco's Prep Plus.
Maaco Fremont also fixed some cracking in the rear bumper. This little sports car looks great. The customer was super happy and loves his car even more with a fresh new paint job. He is ready to hit the streets of San Francisco.
BEFORE
Maaco Fremont's Car of the Day is a classic Lincoln Mark IV. The customer came to us wanting to restore his car's original "Black Diamond" paint. The original paint was faded and pealing with rust in spots. We machine sanded the whole car, masked the windows and moldings and painted the exterior and the underside of the hood. Now this is one beautiful and original classic.

Today's Car of the Day is a 1974 Plymouth Duster that came in with dings on the hood, and chips and scratches around the entire car. Maaco-Fremont repaired the dings and sanded the chips and scratches on the car, and apply primer-sealer. The owner did not like the color on the car and wanted a darker color. He had us paint it a gun metal pearl in single stage paint service. Maaco-Fremont also sanded the door jambs and under the hood and under the trunk jambs for a complete color change.

Wow! This car is no fading violet. Maaco-Fremont's Car of the Day is a classic 1970 Chevrolet Nova that the owner has driven for years. The body was in sad shape but the car ran great and had a beautiful, upgraded engine & drivetrain. So the owner's friends convinced him it was time to put some love into the old girl. He did all the bodywork himself and decided the finishing touch would be to have Maaco-Fremont paint the car "Snakeskin Green Pearl"--the new Dodge Viper/Dodge Challenger special edition color. We were able to duplicate the color and pearl effect in an economical, single-stage paint to keep within the owners budget. The next step, he says, is to add some rally stripes and a clear coat in a month or two. So stay tuned. |
