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.
Yes,I love it. It just looks Right,don't it!
ReplyDeleteAbout 20 years ago I let a 58 Dauphine go to a new home. It was the oddest little car I've ever had. It was an automatic that was actually computer controlled (mine took so long to shift that it would actually coast to stop between gears), had a hole in tail for a crank, each wheel only had 3 wheel studs, was a unibody not body on frame. I'm sure there are other things that I've long forgotten about. The only time I've seen one in the movies is in the background of Breakfast at Tiffany's
