Classic Car Storing Tips
All of us here at Farm Boy Garage hope this blog finds you healthy and safe! It's no secret that the COVID-19 pandemic is a unique time in history, we will all get through this together. While you are social distancing, you may start to throw yourself into a hobby, such as classic car restoration. If you own a classic car, it's important that you are storing it properly. Our auto shop is here to give you a few classic car storing tips. If you're not sure you're doing something correctly when it comes to classic car restoration, you likely need help. This is an investment and you should call the right people to help you take care of that investment. That's where Farm Boy Garage comes in. We can be reached at 515-528-8904.
Make sure your oil is still changed.
If you're not careful, over time, water and dirt can start to build up in your engine oil. This can cause the metal to start to corrode. You may think that because you're not driving the car as much that oil changes don't need to be kept up with but the reality is much different than that. At the end of the day, this classic car was likely an investment for you and it should be well-maintained. Making sure the oil changed even though the vehicle is just sitting for a long time can be a big part of that.
Make sure the car has fresh gas.
Gas can also break down over time. This can create rust on your vehicle and that can be a real pain to correct. Stop the problem before it starts and make sure your car has fresh gas if you plan to store it for an extended period of time.
Wash your car and get it properly detailed.
Take care of your classic car! That's what this all comes down to. If you need help and can't do this on your own, that's where we come in. Make sure your vehicle gets washed and wax. Dirt and grime can start to build up which can eventually lead to your paint getting scratched and that can wreak havoc on the exterior. Again, prevent this problem before it starts.
