Tips to care for your classic car

Owning a classic car can be a great joy and an exciting hobby here in the Dorchester, MA area. However, taking care of your classic car is no small feat. Here are some tips from us at Vargas & Vargas Insurance to help you keep your classic car in excellent condition: 

1. Regularly Check Fluids – Keeping the engine fluids of your classic car at the correct level is essential to its good health. Regularly check the oil, coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid levels and top off when needed. 

2. Protect from Rust – Rust can quickly damage the body of your classic car if not taken seriously. Treating any rust spots with a rust-inhibiting primer as soon as they appear will help protect them from further damage. Covering exposed metal parts with wax or protective paint will also help keep the rust away. 

3. Invest in Quality Parts – Using quality parts when repairing or upgrading is critical to keeping your classic car running smoothly for years. Buying cheap parts that don’t meet your vehicle’s specifications may lead to bigger problems down the road, so it’s essential to do research before deciding what parts you use for repairs or replacements. 

4. Perform Regular Maintenance – Just like any vehicle, regular maintenance is important for keeping your classic car running well over time and avoiding costly breakdowns in the future. Take the time to change spark plugs, filters, and other components as necessary, and ensure everything is working correctly before putting it back on the road again.
