Restoring a Muscle Car
I do not think there is a man out there who would not like to own a muscle car. You dream about it ever since you got your first car and learned how to drive. You imagined the speed, the races and the tricks you would learn to make if only you had that Camaro or Mustang and that entire horsepower.
Many people at adulthood after putting some money aside follow their dreams and search for a classic car that needs restoration. Some buy already restored cars, but the real pleasure is when you buy an old used one, which may even not be working and see it change into a beautiful masterpiece. You may do it yourself or take it to a specialized shop. Either way it is a nice feeling. Everything is renewed: the paint, the oil, the taillights and you may even put on LED taillights. The big advantage is that you get to modify it as you wish and sort of personalize the car to suit your desires.
The restoration process is not easy. It is hard to choose the right car too, because there are so many beautiful cars out there. One big advice is to search for a car that does not need a lot of restoration to the body, as this is the most expensive part.
When you get started, you will realize you need many parts and you have to overcome many difficulties but the result is worth it. Start from the small part to the big parts. Ask for help and for the advice of your friends.
Remember that your car will travel on today's dangerous roads so do not be afraid to improve the car. Maybe one of the best improvements you can make is installing Digital taillights and front lights, which incorporate the LED technology and are extremely effective. They make the car safer on the road as it will be noticed easier and you will feel much better. The looks will improve too. Due to the arrays of LED used, some cool effects are achieved when, for example, you hit the brake. They are easy to install too.
Another advantage of restoring an old car is that you might pay less tax for it and in the end; you will not spend more than on a classical sedan, which doesn't have the power or personality of your new Firebird or Camaro.
