Classic car rentals
can be great for showing up in style at any special event; weddings, parties,
holidays etc. you name it! Even when going on vacation, why not rent a
classic car for pick-up, tours or even just a casual cruise?
Classic cars represent
true craftsmanship. The American automobile industry jump-started in the
early 1900's and fueled the US through the Industrial Revolution in the
1920's. The 1950's are now known as the Vintage Car Era, whereas the Classic
Car Era began in 1960's.These machines are rare, exotic and of course,
pricey. Of course, not all rentals are overly expensive, but any moterist
would know that there's alot more than price to be considerd in classic
car values. Here's a list of some of the most popular classic car
rentals, both in the US and in Europe.
