Summer officially starts in just a few weeks. We are always excited to see summer come so we can get out our  classic cars and muscle cars  for a cruise.

That’s why in this week’s blog,  Farm Boy Garage  will give you some helpful tips on how to protect your ride from the summer elements.

All these things can be detrimental to our classic cars, trucks and muscle cars. So, while you are out in your car, always pay attention to where you park.

When it comes to classic cars, there is a certain expectation of quality, and with time we assume that the existing quality increases. But, is that always the case? When exploring the new versus the mature vehicle, it is clear to see the differences both in style and mechanically. Unfortunately, cars just are not made like they used to be, but that being said the newer models still have something to offer, just not as much as the classics.
