Earning Income From Your Classic Car and Your Experience
There are many ways that your pride and joy can earn you regular income, rather than just sitting in the shed gathering dust. Driving your classic regularly can also help keep it reliable and contribute to its running costs and resale value.
Our sister companies Self-Drive Vintage & Classic Car Hire and Star Cars Agency will help you earn income, from your car, both being dominant in the Australian market
Current and past owners can also earn income from their experience and knowledge by becoming a Classic Car Mentor or a Classic Car Coach.
Ways Owners Earn Income
Joy Ride Experiences
Clients visit your home, you take them for a relaxed drive in your car, and return home afterwards. You remain the driver at all times.
Weddings & Formal Photoshoots
You drive your car to one or more locations for photo opportunities as part of a wedding, formal or special event. Bookings are typically short and low-kilometre.
Fashion & Commercial Photoshoots
Your car may be driven to a shoot location, displayed or lightly used under supervision, and returned home afterwards.
Film & TV Work
Your vehicle may be used as part of a film, television, or commercial production, and may be driven by actors or production staff depending on the role.
Corporate Promotion Work
Classic vehicles are often used for product launches, corporate events, exhibitions, and promotional campaigns, usually as static or lightly used displays.
Self-Drive Hire
Clients visit your home, you explain the car to them, they take it for an agreed period, and return it at the end of the booking.
Self-drive hire offers a strong balance of income potential with limited time commitment. It is well established overseas and available in Australia through VCCH’s dedicated hire partner. www.vintageandclassiccarhire.com.au
Getting Started
We understand that many owners are protective of their vehicles and may not want others driving them. You can choose which earning options suit you — including those that involve only your time and experience.
To get started, simply register your car at Star Cars Agency and upload your vehicle details and photos.
Your car can then be offered for suitable opportunities, always subject to your approval.
