  • In this episode, we buff the 65 year old paint out on my bagged 1960 Auto Union 1000SP, after removing a full layer of aftermarket paint first. This transformation on such an old, weathered car, was incredible!

    Now I know what youtube is good for: Nearly one week ago I saw one of these cars fully restored on a street in germany. And from this day on I wanted to know what car this is. Now I know it! Thanks!

    The 1000sp looks phenomenal! Reminds me of of a 50’s concept car. The stance spit on is perfect!

    Glad that you are getting better man. I've followed you on Instagram for 13-14 years or something like that. I saw your Mercedes back then and that got me into lowering my cars. We have talked a bit on messenger over the years and I've been rocking your wooden TGC logo in my mirrors in all my cars since 2014 💪 Much love from Sweden.

    First, I'm glad you're doing better man! Hope you're able to get everything figured out. Super good you had Kayla around. Second, never in a million years would I have ever expected you to be able to buff ANYTHING out on this car lol. I can't believe you got that primer off of there! It looks amazing, and looks absolutely sick all put together. Nice work to you and the friends who've helped you! Third, "quadaught" is fun to say, haha.
    This car has an unbelievable amount of character.

    Bummer! I also went to hospital with a blocked intestine, the first week in June 2024. Except I'm older than dirt,...probably older than your Pop. I'm 70. This is a new illness for me. Possible remedy: Change in diet, more water, seems to be helping. (I never eat vegetables-could be the problem).I'm OK for the time being,...need to have some tests, too. You are young and should bounce back. Feel better! Been enjoying your videos while I recover.
