Clean your car every day. Use a clean, soft terrycloth towel to gently wipe off any dust. Wash the car weekly with specially designed car soap and a soft sponge. Apply wax to the exterior surface once a month and a special wax to the tires to maintain the luster and shine of your antique car.
Apply good quality leather moisturizers or polishers to the leather interior of your antique car. This helps keep them shiny and prevent damage over a long period of time. Care for cloth seats by dusting them frequently.
Keep the car in the shade away from sunlight and rain. These elements speed up the aging process of the exterior and interior of an antique car. Protect the car with a thick car cover to keep it safe from dirt, rain and insects.
Take your antique car out for a quick ride around the block once every two weeks, especially in the winter. This helps to circulate the oil, keep the car in working condition and bring out any hidden problem in the engine, transmission or brakes.
Use only high quality fuel. Low quality fuels can deteriorate the workings of an antique car's internal parts and cause rust to appear on the engine parts.
