Essential Tips for Showing Your Classic Car

Preparing for a big car show can take weeks, months, and even years depending on how much time you've put into your vintage ride. The effort that goes into the preparation of your classic car can be overwhelming, but our team at Farm Boy Garage has compiled a list of some of our top essential tips for showcasing your classic car! 
Read below to find out our top picks! 
1. Clean, Clean, Clean! 
This should come as no surprise, but you absolutely need to clean your classic car thoroughly prior to the classic car show that you attend. We aren't just saying take a rag and run it across, but deep clean your ride to make yourself competitive! Under the hood, wheels, interior, exterior, and any other spot you could think to clean, no matter how small it may seem, needs to be vigorously cleaned to ensure the best chances of success! 

2. Stay Informed of Event Details
Again, this shouldn't be too much of a shock, but it is incredibly important to stay updated on event details that way you can stay on top of all things event-wise without causing too much added stress on top of having your classic car professionally restored. 
Luckily, at Farm Boy Garage, you won't have to worry too much about your classic car restoration, as we will make sure your ride is good to go after ensuring you have your exact specifications! 

3. Pack Supplies
Making sure you have supplies with you at your car show is essential to help your chances at winning! Bring cleaning supplies to help with any potential last-minute cleaning that need to be done before your classic car is judged. 
In addition to cleaning supplies, it is probably in your best interest to pack some snacks, drinks, and seats for your own comfort as the show can take a while to get through. 
These tips are a sure way to help keep you calm, cool, and collected for your upcoming car show! If you need to prepare your ride, give the team at Farm Boy Garage a call and let us help with all of your professional classic car restoration needs!
