Tips For Storing Your Classic Car in Winter

Be sure to keep your car clean, even during the winter.

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.

Keep changing your oil during the winter season.

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.

Fill up the gas tank.

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.
