I love the American classic cars, and it doesn't much matter what the car is as long as it was built in the USA, I do tend to like muscle cars a bit better then just regular American classics, the classic cars had such a stylish and classy look to them, and they didn't all look the same, the cars today are more plain and drab. There is nothing like the feeling of driving a true American muscle car, from the moment you fire the engine up, your blood begins to pump, you feel like a gorilla on steroids, like nothing can beat you, or even match you in a power contest, because you car and you are invincible, of course you know that it's not true, but at least you have had the opportunity to[..]

The State of California produces some of the best wines in the world so there is no need for you to go abroad to go on a wine tasting adventure. Yes, France and Spain do have great wines and they offer some of the best country wine tours but in these times of economic slump, traveling abroad may not be your best option especially if you want to save some money. Remember that the Euro has higher exchange rate than the dollar so your money will have lesser value if you go to a European country to enjoy the best country wine tour. Besides, going on a wine and food tour within the country can help boost our economy so why not just look for the best country wine tours somewhere in[..]

If you, the casual wine taster, are looking for a way to impress your casual wine tasting friends, it would serve you well to know that in the world of wine, what has been referred to as the "Judgment of Paris" was an important triumph for California. A blind taste test competition between French and Californian wines was organized in 1976 by British wine merchant Steven Spurrier. It took place in Paris and was judged by a panel of French men and women. Spurrier, the judges, and the world were expecting the French wines to win; however, California wines took top positions in both the red and white categories. This significantly affected New World wine production, because California wine[..]

Benefit 1: They are cheap! Due to the concern over environmental issues, with car emissions being a major contributor to global warming (and muscle cars unfortunately emit more than most) and the financial concern over the cost of gasoline (again, these old girls guzzle fuel like it's going out of style), even cars in great condition (often not too far from showroom condition) can be had for bargain prices these days. Just remember if you do buy a muscle car as a project, or if you get something fully restored and ready to go, be responsible to the environment (and your wallet) by only driving on special occasions, such car shows, vintage car runs, or just that one weekend a month roar[..]

When you travel to Napa Valley, dress casual to semi formal and bring more than pocket change to indulge at the wineries. Over 95% of the wineries charge a tasting fee. Tasting fees average between $10 and $25 per tasting. Some tasting and tours can range as high as $50 a person. Most tasting consists of 1 to 8 different wines. Don't expect to see all of Napa in one day, there are over 200 wineries to visit in Napa Valley. You shouldn't drive yourself wine tasting due to the chances of becoming illegal to drive after a few winery tastings. California has harsh repercussions for drunk drivers, renting a tour company is always an option in wine country. There are many tour companies to[..]

In an era where reality car shows that "Fix Up My Ride" may be entertaining, I truly believe in a way it makes a mockery of what a car was intended to be....a natural beauty. The other day I watched as they took a beautiful car such as the Jaguar XK-E and turned it into some sort of absurd creation with 20 inch rims, flat screen TVs, and a stereo system with enough woofer power to drop bass on drums from here to Chicago....boom, booom, boooom! I'm sure when Jaguar created the XK-E way back in the 60's they never imagined that it would eventually be "tricked out or completely changed" years later. Jaguar cars are known to have the distinct contemporary design and Jaguar makers are known[..]

Napa Valley is a great destination from anywhere world wide. San Francisco Airport (SFO) is just a few hours away from your holiday in wine country.

Why do I sound a bit thrilled with the opportunity to write this article, and share some highlights. Very simple, I grew up in California, and know these areas like the back of my hand.[..]

The term Antique Classics is used in reference to old cars. According to Antique Automobile Club of America, an antique car is generally defined as a car over 25 years of age. However, the exact legal definition for the purpose of antique vehicle registration varies widely from State to State. With about 12 years being the normal design life of modern cars, 25 years is about double and therefore a car that's reached 25 is a rare survivor, and probably not economic to maintain as regular transportation. The term Classic Car is often used synonymously with the term Antique car, but the formal definition of that term is restricted to specific high-quality vehicles from the pre-World War II[..]

My first introduction to the world of wine was through a bottle of 1981 Ridge Montebello. Ever since then, I have been a huge fan of Santa Cruz Mountain wines. Recently, I tried another delicious wine from that very same coastal mountain range, Thomas Fogarty's 2004 Santa Cruz Pinot Noir. Though a substantially different wine than the Ridge that started me on my oenophile journey, this wine gave me that same visceral experience. Located just south of San Francisco, the Santa Cruz Mountains are flanked by the San Francisco Bay to the east and the cold Pacific Ocean to the west. These bodies of water create extreme microclimates which intensify with altitude. This altitude produces full[..]

Can you remember back to a time when cars were real? I mean when they were made of good heavy metal. A time when they all had their own character. They didn't all look the same. A time when you could tell a mile away that a Chevy or a Ford was coming because of the identifying characteristics. The rumble or roar of the engine. That special sound a Pontiac made as it rolled down the highway. Every car had its own specific sound and we knew all of them. That was a time when all cars had a class of their own. They all had their own shape and look and each year we waited for the coming changes wondering how we could modify it and make it look even better. We could chop the top, add some fins[..]

v> To what level do you want to take the restoration? Did you purchase a nice driver or did you pull your 1955 Chevrolet, 1956 Chevrolet or 1957 Chevrolet out of junk yard. How nice do you want your finished classic to look? If you have a nice driver with decent paint and interior you may just want to clean and detail the engine compartment and do a safety check on the brakes, brake lines, fuel lines and pull the gas tank and clean it out. Plus fix any engine or transmission oil leaks. However, if you are going to do a complete restoration, at some point in time the body needs to come off the frame. Every nut and bolt needs to be removed. After 50 years rubber body mounts need[..]

During my last restoration job I done, the owner of the cat said to me, you just keep finding things to repair, this car wasn't that bad when it came to you. Most people seem to think that their car is in pretty good shape, when in most cases a car that is 30 years, or older usually has quite a bit of problem areas, and things that needs to be fixed. Usually these cars have had a lot of miles put on them, and been driven in bad weather, snow with salted roads, rock chips that turn to rust, bad repair work that has compromised the integrity of the car's body and frame, a collision that has been repaired with short cuts to save money, and number of things can contribute to the demise of a[..]

v> The following are some specific suggestions that you may want to consider when restoring a classic 1955 Chevrolet, 1956 Chevrolet or 1957 Chevrolet. If you have not located a decent classic yet, then start with the best car you can afford. A rusty car will still be a rusty car unless all the rusted sheet metal is replaced. If you can not weld or do paint and body work then by all means look for a solid car. Sometimes you will be better off purchasing a classic that has be restored a few years ago and is in need of a fresh paint job. The best place to look for rust is by checking the condition of the floor pans and braces. Another place is between the rear bumper and trunk area.[..]

Anybody who's seen Sideways has probably thought of jumping in their car and cruising from vineyard to vineyard, sampling everything from a lovely brusque cabernet to the decadent, infamous pinot noir. Drinking in the brilliant sun and delicious wine sounds like the perfect weekend getaway; it's an American dream that combines the freedom of the road and the allure of heady liquor. It really is a shame that wine and motoring are destined to be at odds, if not by legality then at least by sanity.
