3 Easy Tips For Diy Classic Car Care In Florida

by | Jul 5, 2017 | Auto Body Tips

The summer is typically the roughest season on your classic car in Florida…

Here Are Some Easy DIY (Do It Yourself) Tips For Your Car This Summer That Will Keep You Going And Minimize Repairs

1. BATTERY

Be prepared by testing your battery and replacing if necessary.

This is definitely a basic tip, but often overlooked and the summer heat can be draining if you take your car out often.

Check the water in your battery and keep it full with distilled water.

2. CHANGE THE OIL AND TRANSMISSION FLUID REPLACE FILTERS

This is something you can do at home that we suggest you do every 4,500 miles (at least for the oil) or less.

While you can bring your classic and muscle cars in to have this done we have found that, more often than not, the oil needs to be topped off and the transmission flush doesn’t work.

Doing this at home ensures that you have clean fluids and that they are topped off.

3. REMEMBER TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CAR’S FINISH

As long as you have a good clear coat, you should be able to care for your classic and muscle car’s exterior easily by using a high-quality compound and wax.

These DIY tips will keep your car running all summer long, make it safer, and make it look great.
