MAGAZINE PICKED NETCONG
AUTO
RESTORATIONS, LLC. AS THE PM "TOP SHOP" FOR 2010 CAR MAKEOVER PROJECT
Leading
monthly men's magazine Popular Mechanics
commissioned
Netcong Auto Restorations, LLC.,
to make over a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS for
the magazine's annual Car Makeover feature, running in its
May and June 2010 issues.
Popular
Mechanics staff conducted a nationwide
search of hundreds of automotive restoration
shops before selecting Netcong Auto
Restorations to complete the project.
The
goal of the 2010 Popular Mechanics Car Makeover was to
build a super high-performance Camaro, with custom
designed exterior body and creative paintwork, and a wide
range of advanced electronic/computer technologies integrated into the interior, to make this a
"must-own vehicle."
The
vehicle was completed by March 2010; the finished car
was featured at the Pocono 500, held at Pocono
Raceway, which has long been recognized as one of
NASCAR's most competitive speedways. The vehicle was showcased at Route
66 Car Show in San Bernadino, CA, and at
the 2010 SEMA Show, November 2-5, 2010 in Las Vegas, the
premier automotive accessories trade show in the world.
The
transformation of the Camaro was chronicled in a
two-part advertorial feature in the May and June 2010
issues of Popular Mechanics, as well as online at
