Modern Conveniences With Classic Styling

    CLIFTON, NJ, August 19, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Are you looking for a "New Old Car" or are you someone that loves the classic styling but wants modern conveniences? If so, then Resto-Modding may be right for you. Arthur Polotrak of Premier Restorations is an expert in restoring vehicles and they have been Resto-Modding clients vehicles for decades.

Before We Get Too Far Into This, Lets Define Resto-Modding
Resto-Modding is basically upgrading components within the vehicle. This is something that has been done since the early 50's. It is a term born out of modifying a vehicle while restoring it. This could be anything from substituting a newer engine, transmission, suspension, or interior into an older chassis to adding certain creature comforts like air conditioning.

"One of the most common systems people upgrade are the brakes. Many older vehicles came with four wheel drum brakes and they work, just not as well as today's disk brakes. We, also, do a number of powertrain upgrades. These range from complete engine and transmission swaps to fuel system upgrades. Many companies offer plug and play fuel injection that give the engine much better reliability. Basically, anything that new vehicles offer, we can integrate them into our customer's vehicle. Even some upgrades that aren't offered like computer systems can be added," explained Poltorak.

Resto-Modding May Be Trendy But Why Should You Consider It?
Adding updated suspensions, brakes, engines, transmissions and air conditioning go a long way to bringing your vintage pride and joy up to today's standards. There is a plethora of individual components and kits available for a lot of cars, especially the muscle car era vehicles. These upgrades can not only make your car safer, but they can increase the reliability. No longer will a Sunday drive involve white knuckles and cold compresses as you cruise around. Instead, your car will start easily, obtain remarkably better fuel economy, handle a corner without holding on for dear life and stop without the brakes jerking you into the next lane. 

"Resto-Modding has been around for a long time but, recently it has gained a lot of notoriety. So, it isn't something new or crazy. Many years ago it was almost looked down upon to modify a vehicle but that stigma has pretty much vanished. Everyone finally realizes the benefits to modern technology," mentioned Poltorak.

"Our main focus is to deliver vehicles that our customers can enjoy and that make them happy. Some of our customers like OEM spec vehicles, while others like the looks of the older vehicles but conveniences the more modern vehicles have," finished Poltorak.

There are additional benefits to Resto-Modding. Increased fuel economy and lower emissions are a given by upgrading to a modern drivetrain. That is a great thing, especially in this day and age of high fuel prices. No longer will you or anyone else standing behind your idling car pass out from the fumes. Another benefit is greatly increased performance. How can one complain about increased performance, fuel mileage, lower emissions, all while being more comfortable?

Then you have the added safety of upgrading the suspension and brakes. Being able to go around a corner safely and/or stop before you hit someone is pretty important. Another benefit to modern conveniences would be air conditioning. Who really wants to be sweating while trying to take the wife out on a date?

What Are The Costs Involved With Resto-Modding?
Typical costs to upgrade to modern day components are not substantially more expensive when comparing the costs involved in restoring or replacing original parts. The added expenses involved end up paying for themselves by the increased fuel economy, less wear and, most importantly, you will find yourself wanting to drive your car more. How can you put a price on that?
