It was a trip car enthusiasts won’t forget.

Several fans of classic vehicles were treated to a display of some of the best vintage cars Manila has seen at Prestone’s 90th anniversary celebration last February 21, 2017. Featured in the car show were models like the 1966 Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi, most known for its image as the van of the flower-power hippies, and the 1975 Mitsubishi Minica, which is the inspiration behind the popular Pinoy tongue twister "Minekaniko ni Monico ang makina ng Minica ni Monica."

Kapuso stars Glaiza de Castro, Rocco Nacino, Andrea Torres, Luane Dy, Valeen Montenegro, Arny Ross, Denise Barbacena, Bruno Gabriel, and Kris Bernal also graced the event to perform dance numbers and participate in fun games with the attendees. Prestone also launched the Anak Ng Mekaniko Scholarship Program to give back to the mechanics who continue to use and support their products.

The American antifreeze brand brought in the classic rides at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall to highlight its role in the automotive industry through the years—to be exact, nine decades of proven quality and trusted car care complemented by consistent high trust ratings among motorists and mechanics.

“Prestone is known to have done the education for proper car care and maintenance in terms of extending the life of your car and making sure that your car is protected over a long period of time,” says Paulo Lao, Sales and Marketing Director of Clorox International Philippines Inc., the local distributor of Prestone products.

Trends in the automotive industry may be changing, but what remains constant among car owners is keeping the roadworthiness of their cars a priority–pushing Prestone to maintain its quality.

“We are 90 years old but also 90 years young,” explains Clorox International Philippines General Manager Marites Dagdag. “So going forward, you can expect Prestone to deliver the same high quality and trustworthy products to keep you safe, to keep you and your family protected.”
