Why Classics Are Easy to Work On (Especially Now)
Classic cars were built before layers of electronics took over. With simple, mechanical systems and fewer parts to fail, they’re easier to understand and easier to fix. Bigger engine bays mean you can actually get your hands in, and many routine jobs can be done with basic tools.
Better still, owning a classic is easier today than when these cars were new. Parts are widely available, modern tools are affordable, and there’s a huge community of enthusiasts, clubs and specialists ready to help. What once needed a specialist is now well within reach of the everyday owner.
