Any car that is over 25 years old is a classic car. This definition, then, would include such cars as the 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass, which has a Kelley Blue Book value of just under $2,000. But when you think of the term “classic car” you don’t think of an ’88 Olds; you think of a ’67 Ford Mustang, or a ’65 Chevy Corvette. A classic car is a car that people turn their heads to look at, the ones that the cool kids would drive to school in the ’70’s in. The Trans Am’s and the Corvettes and the Chargers and ‘Cuda’s out there – those are classic cars. And that’s what we’re talking about when we talk about classic car shipping services.
If you’re looking for classic car shipping, consider enclosed transport services. For the reason that any classic car that has maintained or accrued value should be shipped enclosed. This is because most classic cars don’t retain their value over time – just look at the Chevy Nova or the Ford Escort, both technically classic cars but not worth much, especially as a collector’s item. You can transport such cars in an open auto transport carrier because a little dirt and dust and exposure won’t hurt their value.
