Encinitas automotive detailer Jose Junco of High Performance Auto Detail was chosen to help prepare a rare 1947 Cistalia 202 Coupe designed by 1940s Italian carmaker Pinin Farina, for exhibition at the Concorso Italiano on Aug. 14, and for competition at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance on Aug. 15.
The Cistalila 202 Coupe is the only known remaining version of the designer’s 200 Coupe left. Made of three pieces of hand-beaten metal with a single stage automotive paint, its permanent home is in the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles.
Junco is a successful automotive paint specialist and is a dually certified skills validated member of the International Detailing Association. He also served on the Air Force One detailing team at Seattle’s Museum of Flight.
“It was quite the experience, and I am honored to have been part of it. We will be pulling for the car to win a ribbon next week. The competition is brutal, but this car is a true work of art,” said Junco.
Junco opened his Encinitas-based auto detailing company in January 2014 after working for several of the most successful car dealerships in San Diego.
