Homero

When I was 16 or 17, my dad worked fixing cars for a friend. One day, this friend bought a '48 Chevrolet and a '52 and proposed a deal: if he restored both, he would keep the '52 and let him use the '48. My dad had never owned a car, so he agreed without hesitation. He fixed the '52 first and then put the same effort into the '48, which ended up becoming part of our history.

That '48 Chevrolet was the car my dad used to visit me every weekend when I was at rural school, where we spent 45 days studying and working. He always arrived with food, and more than just a car, that Chevrolet represented my father's hard work and unconditional love. That image was etched in my memory, and years later, when a red '48 Chevrolet convertible appeared, I didn't hesitate. It reminded me of my father and his history, and it was also ideal for the business.

The original owner had emigrated and left the car in the custody of his mother-in-law in a basement in Miramar. When I went to see it, it had been sitting there for years. Its former owner called it "El Buti," but we renamed it "Homero," inspired by Greek mythology, a powerful name that symbolizes history and resilience, just like this '48 Chevrolet. Today, Homero is not just a restored car; it's a link to my father and our passion for classics.
