Two new products have just been released by Mothers Polishes-Waxes-Cleaners that help a vehicle owner care for their car’s leather interior. The new LeatherTech Foaming Wash features a moisture-balanced foam that digs into any stain. The glycerin-enriched lather is applied and its air-infused formula uses encapsulating agents to dissolve and lift away dirt and hydrate the leather, said the company.
After using the Foaming Wash, Mothers’ new LeatherTech Moisture Infusion Gel Cream can then be applied. It’s designed to provide multi-layer hydration and anti-aging properties to help nourish and protect the leather. It will prevent future fading, drying and cracking and will not leave a greasy residue, said the company.

The Chrysler Corporation was also doing very well within the automotive markets with its popular Dodge Dart models. The 1966 Dodge Dart models made their debut in Dodge dealerships on September 30, 1965.

These ‘change-over’ cars (often referred to as ‘carry-overs’) were essentially Shelby-spec ’65 GT350s, and received the same performance modifications,
