Spring is a wonderful time of year, it symbolises a fresh start and that is also true for turning thoughts towards a classic car interior upgrade to get it ready for the road.
For some, it means bringing their pride-and-joy out from winter hibernation, while for others it is the perfect opportunity to start a restoration project.
Whatever the reason, an upgraded air conditioning system should be a priority to get the most enjoyment from the car in the hotter months ahead.
STAY COOL AS THE TEMPERATURE RISES
The UK is known for unpredictable weather over the summer months – one day it is pouring down with rain, the next day the temperature is going through the roof.
After all, who can forget the record-breaking temperatures of 2022 when the thermometer topped 40°C in the UK for the first time ever.
With such uncertainty, classic car owners wanting a comfortable driving experience need the reassurance that their air conditioning system, if they have one installed at all, should be reliable, and provide a level of performance found in modern vehicles.
This is just as important for drivers taking their classic car to warmer climes to enjoy a leisurely road trip.
Given the range of driving conditions which are encountered, we have pushed our world-class air conditioning systems to the limit in testing in extreme climates around the world, meaning they provide efficient cooling, and temperature control, no matter the circumstance.
ENHANCED PERFORMANCE WITHOUT COMPROMISING ORIGINALITY
Maintaining the originality of a classic car is of prime importance for owners.
With a Clayton Classics system, owners do not need to have such concerns, as our climate control products are equally focused on performance, aesthetics and quality.
They have been designed to fit seamlessly with rest of the vehicle, while providing space for other components.
Furthermore, a Clayton Classics system is totally reversible, yet another benefit if the car is offered for resale.
MANY OPTIONS FOR A CLASSIC CAR interior UPGRADE
Classic car owners wishing to benefit from our expertise in climate control as spring arrives can also choose between having our custom designed air conditioning systems installed by our experts, or have it supplied in kit form for them to fit themselves.
Indeed, many owners relish the opportunity to explore the vehicle’s inner workings, often forming part of a wider project of upgrading or restoring a car. Of course, the Clayton Classics team is only a phone call away if support is needed.
