Sydney Sweeney

The actress restored a 1969 Ford Bronco, which was featured in a new commercial.

And I would drive my cars to set and I would work on them in basecamp. "When I was learning how to drive, my mom would make me randomly pull over on the side of the road, and she would tell me to get out," Sweeney explained. "And now being able to share things that inspired me when I was younger and do it on this level, it’s an amazing thing." "After Euphoria, if I wrapped on a day or had a day off, I'd go to the garage and work on my Bronco. "I was always watching my cousins or my uncles work on cars and I wanted to be able to do it too," she says. And the sitting in the traffic on the 405, it's a workout." The new campaign includes a scholarship for women pursuing an education in automotive tech and exclusive workwear with Ford and Dickies. She hopes that her passion for rebuilding vintage cars, coupled with a new partnership with Ford, will inspire more women to feel comfortable working on cars while defying stereotypes that working on cars is a hobby exclusively reserved for men. And when she got ahold of the Bronco, Sweeney needed space to do the work. As for why she loves vintage cars, it's an appreciation for the stories they tell and the history and memories made in classic cars. She created the account to document the restoration of her dream vehicle, a 1969 Ford Bronco. And we want to bring back the good ‘ol rom-coms with Will Gluck, and we’re having a great time doing it."

"And my uncles and my cousins are all mechanics, and my mom is a huge car enthusiast, so I grew up watching them work on cars, seeing them in the shop." I am going to teach myself how to work on this car.'" "What we did in the campaign is actually what I do on a daily basis with Tank," Sweeney, 25, exclusively tells PEOPLE.
