Start the Drive Season Right…

Our Lake Forest OPEN is designed to allow our members to display other cars in their collections that may be outside the vintage European guidelines.
So many good conversations, that we didn’t make the rounds to document the volume of interesting cars.
By 9:30am the 200 car space was completely full and cars were diverted to the adjacent space and surrounding streets. Some might say move to a bigger space, we say raise the bar and edit.

Sunday Funday

We start the 2024 Fuelfed Drive Season with The OPEN in Lake Forest this Sunday morning. To honor the concluding winter season, we feature vintage trucks and wagons.
The OPEN is for members Classic European, Classic American and Modern European vehicles.

Barrington Auto Spa

We’ve always supported small, local independent businesses that add value to the Fuelfed membership experience and vintage car culture in general.
Bob has been an involved Fuelfed member for years and always keeps his cars immaculate. Now he’s taking a his detailing passion and sharing his skills with select customers who want a very personal and high level approach to keeping their cars in show quality form with his Barrington Auto Spa. So we thought we’d see what could with the daily BMW X1.

Below is the impressive steps Bob took to get the X1 back to 2014 factory fresh.

1. Initial rinse with a pressure washer with filtered water to remove all large particles.
2. Iron decontamination, soak and rinse
3. Full undercarriage/body foam spray, rinse and wash
4. Full body and windows clay bar to remove all micro contaminants
5. Multiple abrasive polishing steps, depending on condition of paint and required outcome
6. Full body foam wash again
7. Full body alcohol, wipe to remove all contaminants
8. Ceramic coating application
9. Wheel and tire cleaning plus ceramic coating application
10. Full interior glass cleaning
11. Full interior body panel, wipe down and cleaning
12. Leather cleaning and conditioning plus shampooing carpeting
13. Final walkthrough and touchups.
    All professional quality products used. At BAS we prefer to take more time and make it as perfect as can be.
