Fuel combinations for classic cars explained by experts<\/h3>\n

Classic car owners can increase the value of their models by adding three things to their historic vehicles, according to a car expert.<\/p>\n

EllingsonClassicCars, a dealer for older models based in Minnesota, claimed adding three modern items to their cars may see valuations soar.<\/p>\n

Talking on their YouTube channel, a spokesperson said: \u201cNumber one. Power steering. We\u2019re all spoiled with power steering and it\u2019s one of the easiest improvements you can put on one of these old cars bar none.\u201d<\/p>\n

Power steering is a mechanical device fitted to all modern vehicles which reduces the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The technology was only available as standard in most vehicles by 1970 meaning many older models may not have it installed<\/p>\n

It means owners of these models will have to exert increased energy to simply use the car which may put many off snapping them up.<\/p>\n

However, installing power steering could be expensive with many providers quoting thousands of pounds for the equipment.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, kits for top-end models such as an Astin Martin DB and Jaguar XK120 are pushing \u00a34,000.<\/p>\n

EllingsonClassicCars added: \u201cNumber two, even easier, Radial tyres. So many of the cars we all grew up with old bias tyres.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell you put a set of radial tyres on an old car it changes everything. Rides smoother runs better, better gas mileage, you name it, done.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Footman James, radial tyres are able to absorb shocks \u201cfar better\u201d than other rubber.<\/p>\n

Radial tyres have less cording which \u201cincreases comfort\u201d for passengers inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, experts claim there is a vast decrease in blow-out punctures caused by overheating.<\/p>\n

EllingsonClassicCars concluded: \u201cAnd number three of course, depending on where you live, air conditioning.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey don\u2019t even make cars without air conditioning in most cases because you know if you live in a warmer place, boy it\u2019s really nice to have. We\u2019re spoiled but that’s the way it is.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose are the three things that I\u2019d do if I had my old car and my choice.\u201d<\/p>\n
