In the backdrop of climate challenges and advanced technical solutions, Sharjah Old Cars Club (SOCC) expertly champions this passion through providing classic car enthusiasts with a comprehensive and practical guide for maintaining vintage cars in pristine condition, both on the road and in storage.

In high-temperature environments, the performance of an old car's engine is subject to its cooling efficiency.

Experts recommend using ceramic-coated radiators, which significantly outperform conventional models in heat dissipation.

These radiators help stabilise engine temperature even during peak heat hours, which is an essential factor for ensuring safe driving.

SOCC experts advise conducting maintenance in the morning between 6:00am and 8:00am, when ambient temperatures are lower.
