Very Cool , can't wait to see the real thing.

So is this being built for shows or this Mikes new mobile detail rig?

[SpoiledMan]

Mike, is that the same car that was there for the last MOL "try the new stuff" day?

Be sure and supply HP and TQ ratings when available!

Who is in charge of designing/building the car? Stitchcraft has done interiors for Foose on Overhaulin! Should look sweet when it's finished.

[Wayfarerwalk]

Does tat thang have a hemi? A supercharged hemi at that? Sweeeet!

[gb387]

Looks good! Mike are they going to let you take it home?

Hey, that would make for a nice avatar!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Are the company reps going to be driving that model sometime soon?

I notice that they are driving PT Crusiers for the moment......I think that's what I saw one day.

[Mike Phillips]

This is a company car, I'm not sure who will be driving it, not me that's for sure...


Mike Pennington is in charge of this project, he'll be able to answer any and all questions.

Cool project. I look forward to seeing the finished product. Anymore information on the interior?

I thought I read on another forum the new company vehicles were black F-150's.

Lot's if questions, lets see if we can answer them all

1) I am responsible for designing and building the new Meguiar's Magnum . This is the newest show car for Meguiar's...

2) Yes, it does have and Hemi, and it will be supercharged along with NOS

3) I am lucky enough to have it as my company car.

4) It will be dyno'd and I will post results !!!

5) PT Cruiser as company cars ?? We never had these as "company cars", but we did have one here in Irvine as just an extra car for fun.

6) On the interior, we used Alcantara perforated suede inserts on the seats and custom door panel inserts using the same material. It turned out very classy and clean. The interior will also have huge assortment of Audio & Video toys...Once it is all done, we will post pictures

7) Almost all Sales Reps drive Tahoes now, but we just built several F-150's for them. They turned out pretty nice.

Sounds well appointed Mike.

Can you post pics and specs (if there were any mods) of the F-150's?

[Mike Pennington]

They have the following equipment....

- 22" MHT Wheels
- 305/45/22 Toyo Tires
- 2" lowered shackle on the back
- Painted to match hard bed cover
- Meguiar's graphics
- 3" exhaust
- Tinted windows

We have 2 of them in the fleet currently, and the guys are pretty happy with them. Unfortunately, we can't go hog wild on these, because these poor guys drive anywhere from 30k - 50K miles per years visiting customers.

None of the F-150's are...Once again lots of mileage get on these trucks

As far as the Magnum goes....It will be full tilt
