People find it difficult to part with the old ride that gave them many good memories. If it is your first car, you may want to keep the old thing in your garage without selling it away. But, on a serious note, you cannot simply preserve an old car because it has emotional values attached to it; there must be practical reasoning behind it. Even if you want to keep the old car without using it, it will need space. Therefore, renovating your old vehicle might seem like a good option. Continue reading to find out valuable tips on the subject.

Contact A Mechanic: When you need to treat someone to health, you go to a doctor. Similarly, when it comes to vehicles, you firstly need to contact a mechanic who can access the car’s condition better than anyone else. He will point out the things that require replacement, which can be fixed to make the car new again. Don’t be surprised if he advises scrapping the project altogether. At times, a vehicle might be broken beyond repair. Spending time and money on such a rusty vehicle would be a loss. Therefore, once you get the green signal from the mechanic, you may proceed further.

Rethink The Vehicle: Do you remember the MTV Pimp My Ride? They used to take these almost damaged cars and turn them into luxury automobiles. They used to think outside the box, which made their TV show so famous and addictive. If you want to recreate your vehicle, you too must think differently. For example, you may install big loudspeakers in the back of your trunk if you feel the need. If one is obsessed with listening to music in the car, he would be looking for in car entertainment systems. These little things entirely change the car’s look.

• Painting makes everything bright and shiny. You may decide to paint the car with its previous color or upgrade with new edgy colors. People often like to paint the car by themselves as a DIY project. So, they buy the paint, jet spray, and other stuff to paint the car. You may mix and match different colors to get fantastic effects.
• You may even install a roof window that you see on fancy cars. Let this old, worn-out car be your canvas to think and reimagine the vehicle. You can design the car as you want and let the mechanics look at it. If the experts feel that your design can be turned into reality, they will undoubtedly help you achieve your dream car.

Design It For the Purpose: If you have a family, it is better to have a family car with more seating room. Similarly, if you are a musician who tours from town to town, you might have more space at the back of the car to store your guitar, drums, or other musical instruments. Therefore, think of your requirement and modify your vehicle accordingly. For example, you can add seats or take them down to make space.

Paperwork: Once you have modified your car, it’s time to hit the road. But not before you get the paperwork done. A car must be reregistered once a year; it is essential when the vehicle goes under such transformation. Furthermore, be sure to follow the maintenance protocols to ensure the safety of the passengers.
