Abandoned Cadillac Hearse Revived After Years in a Field

After being left to deteriorate in a field for more than 16 years, this Cadillac hearse is now covered in mold, dirt, and debris. However, the WD Detailing crew takes on the challenge of rescuing and restoring the vehicle. They begin by thoroughly cleaning the interior and exterior, and then work on getting it running again.

Transporting the hearse back to the shop proves to be a difficult task. Due to its length, the vehicle hangs off the back of the trailer. To add to the challenge, one of the team members accidentally drops the winch battery while loading the hearse. It seems as though the vehicle wants to remain undisturbed.

5 Of The Best Universal Remotes For Your TV

If you’re tired of juggling multiple remotes for your TV, Blu-Ray player, and soundbar, the SofaBaton U2 is a great solution. This universal remote works with any device in your living room and offers a cost-effective option. While it’s priced at $60, which is slightly higher than other options, it provides many quality-of-life upgrades.

You can connect up to 15 devices at a time, making it suitable for most users. Plus, it eliminates the clutter of having multiple remotes. The SofaBaton U2 is compatible with over 500,000 devices from over 6,000 brands, ensuring wide compatibility. However, it doesn’t support wireless devices like Roku streaming sticks, so it’s important to note that it requires devices with an infrared (IR) sensor.

JEEP® INTRODUCES MUD LOOK AS FACTORY OPTION ON ALL COMPASS MODELS

 

  • All future Jeep® Compass owners now offered no-cost option of having car covered in mud to give it the complete off-road look from day one
  • Three optional mud trims available include Clay, Soil and Silt, each with unique consistency and colour
  • Mud-spraying robots developed by Jeep’s Chief Mud Officer, Dr. Terry Firma to automate mud application
  • Mud-On aftermarket package allows existing Jeep customers to achieve the off-road look at home

Jeep® has launched a range of no-cost optional mud trims across all Compass models so all future owners can get the mud look from day one of ownership to reflect the American brand’s legendary off-road capabilities no matter the time and place.

 

As part of the vehicle specification process, customers will be able to select one of three new mud finishes – Clay, Soil and Silt – each developed over the last 12 months by a specialist in-house team of soil scientists.

 

The Clay finish recreates the sticky, smooth, dense look of a Jeep that has just effortlessly traversed a riverbed. The Soil mud finish is reminiscent of a deep forest, rich with colour and moisture. Lastly, Silt is sprinkled with granular rock, fashioning the post-Moab desert drive appearance.

 

A multi-million dollar investment into the Compass production line has seen the introduction of high-tech application mud booths. Inside the booths, high-pressure mud-spraying robots have been developed to automate the mud application process.

 

The innovative process, described by Jeep as “mudification”, ensures the entirety of the vehicle is covered with an even spread of mud.

 

A bonding resin is added to the mud mixtures to ensure it stays on the vehicle permanently. However, customers can have it removed at no additional cost at Jeep dealerships via the de-mudification process.

 

CMO (Chief Mud Officer) Dr. Terry Firma, who led the development programme, said: “We’ve always known that a Jeep looks best when it’s muddy, so now our future customers can have the ‘been exploring’ look from the start. There are few vehicles that can pull off the mud look, but the Jeep Compass is certainly one of them. The Compass looks just as good covered entirely in mud as it does sparkling clean.”

 

For existing Jeep owners, the brand has developed the “Mud-On” aftermarket package. The Mud-On package includes a 15-litre container of Clay, Soil, and Silt alongside a mud trowel so customers can apply the classic Jeep off-road look at home.

 

Mud-On packages will ensure total coverage for up to six months and are available to order online or via Jeep dealerships for £36.65 per 15-litre container.
