So you want to restore a classic car. That is great, but where do you begin? First, you need to pick a car. Look for one with a solid frame and body. Check for rust because rust causes big problems later on. Many folks around Bristol choose older models because their parts are easier to get.

After you have a car, sit down and write out a plan. Figure out which jobs you can do and which ones need a mechanic. Try the small stuff first so you can learn as you go. Keep track of what you spend and take pictures of your work. It helps to see how far you have come.

LRA Auto Museum and Sales works with people who want to start their own restoration projects. Take a look at our inventory to see classic cars that might be right for you. We are located at 3114 Veterans Highway, Bristol, PA, and would be happy to show you around.
