There are few material things in life that are as priceless as an American classic car, specifically, the Chevrolet. Invented in the early 1900s, the original Chevrolets -- whose namesake, Louis Chevrolet was actually a race car driver for the Buick brand -- were envisioned as being manufactured for the wealthy, this is evidenced by the introduction of the "Classic Six", one of Chevrolet's earliest models that also had a whopping price tag of over $2000 -- a significant price for that day and age, and one very few people could actually afford. It was also because of this difference in the idea for the vision of the company that the partnership of Louis Chevrolet and William Durant -- the[..]

the most important steps in internet marketing is finding a profitable niche. But what is a niche? Many people starting their online business have a general idea of the concept. Sometimes they describe the term niche as: "What your website is about". While they are not far from correct, the concept of the niche goes far beyond. In the world of marketing this concept is used to describe a specific area within the market as a whole. Now lets apply the these concepts to online internet marketing. If you are thinking about building a site about the automobile industry, cars can be your market. In this case, cars represent the big market filled with thousands of websites competing for the[..]

There are many different types of red wine and red wine blends, but these popular and well-known types of red wine are most commonly seen on a wine list. While many are grown in famous wine making regions like northern California, France's Rhone Valley and regions in Australia, there are many great tasting wines produced in Argentina and Chile too. Merlot is known for being an easy to drink wine, that pairs well with many different types of food. Merlot also usually has a lower amount of tannins than a Cabernet Sauvignon, making it a good "beginner's" wine because of its smooth flavor. Malbec is another good "beginner's wine" that is smooth like Merlot with berry flavors. Malbec is the[..]

When it comes to wine, there is never a dumb question. When you are learning about wine, it is best to ask as many questions as possible. Recently, while on a wine tour, I overheard the woman next to me ask if Burgundy was a grape or a region. Her wine tasting companion chimed in ‘well of course it is a grape’ just as the vintner was answering her question ‘it is a region-and all great Burgundian reds are pinot noir-all whites are chardonnay.’ Needless to say, the wine tasting ‘companion’ turned a true shade of red! I have been on many a wine tour, and each time I venture into wine tasting, I learn something new.  I make it a point to write questions in advance, which in[..]

One of the hallmarks of any festive occasion is the popping of Champagne corks. There is something about this sparkling wine from France that has always been associated with good times and living the high life. For brides and grooms trying to decide how to include Champagne in their own celebration, here is a basic primer. The first thing that many people do not realize is that true Champagne comes only from the region of France of the same name. Anything else is a sparkling wine, but is not truly Champagne. Champagne was created hundreds of years ago in France, and gets its bubbly nature from a process of second fermentation. It was first enjoyed by royalty, thus the association of[..]

During the "glory" days of Singer Sewing Machines, Singer produced the model 201 from the 1930's to at least the 1950's. It was their finest (and highest priced) machine. Thousands of these machines were produced -- and most of them are still sewing as finely and strongly today as they did when first produced. Research the Singer 201 and you'll find more than one reference stating that the 201 is the finest sewing machine Singer ever made. While I can't authoritatively say the same (I haven't tried all the machines Singer ever made!), I haven't found anything about the 201 that would make me disagree with that statement. I really appreciate fine mechanical and electronic devices. I[..]

The Cartier Roadster watch is one of the rare chronographs that when you see will remind you of an automobile. The Roadster watch is a special timepiece that is motivated by the arena of car designs. The Roadster is really a watch that exhibits signs of a feel of power as well as performance, and has a simple, but very prominent physical appearance and gleaming design. Furthermore, the timepiece features a quite fashionable Cyclops lens that will magnify the date. The Cartier Roadster is really a progressive, thus far classic and eye-catching watch for the modern day men or women. But how and where did the Cartier Roadster watch started out? Well, all of the Cartier timepieces started[..]

eful night in February..or how the SCCA founding fathers became heirs to racing legacy Sounds like the beginning to a mystery. In fact, it was a February evening, in 1944, when seven well-healed gentlemen met at a Boston estate. The gentlemen shared not only wealth and privilege, but also a love of driving and owning the specially engineered and built vehicles they called “sports cars”. The group elected officers, drafted a constitution, including strict membership rules designed to invite only their kind into the fold and gave their club a name. This was the rather staid beginning of the Sports Car Club of America. The club was formed more to promote the preservation and restoration[..]

If you expect to succeed as a professional solution provider - coach, consultant, etc., you first have to last. Just last long enough and you'll be the only person who got started when you did, who is still around. After all, 80-90% of the folks who got into coaching or insurance or whatever when you did, will fail and leave the business and it will all be yours. So while you are busy outlasting the others - there is one thing you must do if you want to ever develop a sustainable business. You have to identify a client type for whom you are ideally suited. And it is not a complicated process! There are two most likely causes of failure - before you last long enough to convince the world[..]

When it comes to that special occasion, renting just any car is simply not enough. For events like graduations and weddings, it is only understandable that people want to have the very best possible. Limousines are still popular but there are new trends moving in as far as car rentals go. Classic cars are now high on the list of demands for car rentals.

Many people find that the sight of a restored vintage car rolling along the highway, with a fresh coat of shimmering paint and chrome accents gleaming in the sun, brings a huge smile to their face as they recall wonderful memories of earlier times. For people who appreciate the workmanship and attention that goes into bringing these beauties back to life, a classic car auction might be a memorable event that could even tempt one to start bidding so that they can claim the classic collectible for themselves. Classic car auctions have long been a favorite type of event for car lovers of all ages to attend. Before the bidding gets underway, which can get rather heated with an enthusiastic[..]

As an owner of a vintage car that has needed complete restoration, I know the value of do-it-yourself projects. By doing the car repairs or restorations yourself, you can save thousands of dollars. One of the most often needed repairs for vintage cars is the upholstery. Let me give you some easy tips for repairing it yourself. First of all, you should always clean the upholstery before starting any repair projects. Use an upholstery cleaner that is made specifically for the type of upholstery you have and always follow the manufacturers instructions to the letter. I prefer to spot test the cleaner in an out-of-the-way place just to be sure. You will be amazed at what a good cleaning can[..]

Quite why there is a return of vintage car events may be manifold, but there is no doubt the general public is being energized by the reappearance of some older events and the creation of new ones. The owners and drivers of historic vehicles come in two flavours. This who like to keep their vehicles in showroom condition, spend hours cleaning and polishing their treasured cars and never take them out on the open road. The other extreme is the owner/driver who hardly ever cleans his car, in fact they may just do the bare minimum to keep them running. These people seem to be more interested in driving rather than owning and seek every opportunity to get their motors on the road, either in[..]

Read this and save money on your classic automobile insurance by learning how to shop, where to shop and getting the best price. You love your classic car and so does everybody else but there are two values to your classic car, the value you put on it and the value somebody else, namely the insurance company would put on it. Even though your classic car is much more valuable than the four-door sedan your family drives around it is also much more expensive to repair should an accident occur. This is why insuring these beautiful old cars can be so expensive. In many cases original parts are no longer being manufactured and scouring the junkyards to find replacement parts in the event of an[..]

If you are the owner of a special collector or antique automobile, you will also need special coverage to be sure that your prized possession is covered. A collector vehicle is worth much more than another persons ordinary Ford. Additionally, it is going to cost a lot more if it has to be repaired. The cost of classic car insurance is worth every penny to protect your specialty vehicle, but why not save a few of those pennies by asking several companies for a classic car insurance quote. You will find that not every insurance company will offer the coverage you need for your specialty vehicle. You may need to do some internet searches and call several local insurance agents to find the[..]

With Dodge re-releasing the challenger, and Chevrolet re-releasing the camero, I think that a return of the muscle cars is up on us, and for a muscle car freak like me, this is a good good thing, it's one of those that I thought would never happen, with all the tree huggers, hippies, and general whiners out these, I just figured that my dream to see the old American muscle again would be flushed away like so many classic American cars. With all the people in this country that seem to think that import cars are built better, and so many people that just don't believe in our country any more, I never thought that this day would come, I heard all the whining about these cars that first time[..]

When it comes to classic American cars, the Ford name ranks right at the top. From the earliest days of the Model T to the on again, off again love affair with the Crown Victoria, this company has often set the bar others seek to attain.   The Crown Vic as it is often called was originally produced in 1955 and 1956. Original Crown Vics are quite a boon to come across since production ceased so quickly on the models. Collectors, in fact, will find it is not uncommon for good condition 1955 Crown Victoria models to fetch $30,000 to $100,000 or more.   Initially a coupe with two doors and six seats, the classic was distinguished from the regular Victoria in the Ford line by a decorative[..]

Mention classic American cars and the mind is drawn back to the 1950s. The Classic Car Club of America labels cars built before 1959 as classics. That tag is certainly deserved for cars built and designed during that decade as the American automobile manufacturers revolutionised the designs and technology of cars. Names of the vintage American cars of the 1950s resonate to this very day. The Oldsmobile Rocket 88 Convertible, the Chevrolet Corvette and Bel Air Convertibles, the Dodge B500 Hardtop, the Studebaker Golden Hawk and the Cadillac Convertible and Seville - hallmarks of luxury - remain great examples of American automobile design of that era. The design of American cars during[..]

Collecting refers to the purchase of assets which it is hoped will increase in value, such as antique furniture and paintings. The disadvantage of 'collectibles', as they are sometimes called, is that they produce no income all the return is in the potential increase in value and that value is usually subject to fashion and whims. On the other hand, it can be argued that they give pleasure that is the return. Collectibles can be damaged or stblen, so they must be insured at current replacement value, which means getting regular valuations: these can cost around 1% of value each time. It is also a good idea to keep coloured photographs and written descriptions. In the event of a[..]

If you're looking at getting to the church in style, let alone on time, there are a few considerations to making that grand Cinderella-like entrance to the ball without spending a fortune doing it.

Most of us know people who would like to throw any excuse for not caring for their cars. One reason might be financial inability; they say that can't afford to restore it and they simply leave it unattended just seeing it rusting in their back yard. After some years of continually increased rust development, the time has finally come for sending it to the crusher rather than see somebody else caring for it or buying it. "If I can't have it, nobody else should!" - reflects a nasty attitude that unfortunately is prevailing in some peoples mind. After using the vehicle for years they don't even care about it or even sell it. Classic car restoration is the ultimate way to give your old[..]

GM, or chevy suffix codes are a very misunderstood part of engine identification, and just as under utilized. Very little thorough information has been available to the average enthusiast because GM never released the chevy suffix codes to the consumer. GM dealerships were likely the only ones who new what the chevy engine suffix code meant, until recently. Chevy suffix code decoder books have been assembled through the hard work of one man, whose father instilled the importance of tracking the chevy engine suffix codes at a very young age. These decoders are his life's work. What are they you ask? Chevy engine suffix codes are a series identification numbers stamped into the Chevy[..]
