     Well congratulations! You have taken the first step towards an incredible journey. A journey that we believe is one of great reward and even greater enjoyment. These my friend, are the first steps to owning your first restored classic automobile. Automobiles have been around for literally centuries now, and as the world and the civilizations that inhabit it have changed, so have the modes of transportation. From the 1800's, to the 1900's automobiles have been a way of life, and in many ways defined a generation. Now it is time to make your particular automobile define you.

   Different people restore cars for different reasons. Profit, sentimental reasons, loyalty, or even morbid curiosity are just some of the many varied reasons folks give when asked why they restored their cars. There is no right or wrong answer, just your answer. You see, in the end, the only person your car has to make sense to is you. Your reasons can be different, but that does not make them any less important or valid. Just make sure you know what that reason is, and clearly understand it.
