It's always very intriguing to learn more about a car, and this morning I read a good article on the Renault from SEMA that was the absolute standout

For the third straight year, Pit+Paddock and ENEOS Oil joined forces with Dai Yoshihara to award one lucky project car builder with a feature vehicle spot at the SEMA Show.

This year, Justin Cashmore stunned the judges with his 1960 Renault Dauphine, which he rescued from the California desert and transformed into a one-of-a-kind creation.

Justin was in the Navy for over 20 years, stationed in Japan, Italy, and Florida. Through his experiences and travels, he developed a unique skill set and style, working on vehicles of various makes, models, and eras while soaking in car culture first-hand from three different continents. The result is a man who lives in Simi Valley, California, where his job is to wrench on his buddies’ cars while dedicating his spare time to creating individual masterpieces.
