The Classic Throttle Shop
If you wish to buy a rare or classic sports car, you may find the search process difficult and time-consuming. You must usually check advertisements in classic car magazines and on the internet and then spend time to inspect cars whose condition and history may not match the claims of their over- enthusiastic owners.
This process has been made easier by the recent expansion of the Classic Throttle Shop in North Sydney. This company sources and sells premium sports cars (and even some racing cars) that are either in original condition or that have been restored to original or near original specifications. Prospective buyers can expect such cars to have a 'pedigree' in the form of a comprehensive service and/ or restoration history, to support the prices being asked.
The cars are displayed in a roomy and 'atmospheric' showroom just north of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. If you are interested, please click on this link to www.classicthrottleshop.com
Are you worried about tyre pressures?
Most of us struggle to check tyre pressures, now that the days of full service petrol stations are gone. How often do you find that your local petrol station’s tyre hose is disconnected or faulty? Do you have trouble operating the self service digital tyre pressure system at some filling stations?
A simple device is now available to deal with this problem. It’s a tyre valve cap that is preset to the correct pressure for your car’s tyres. When your tyre pressure is correct, a green band is clearly visible at the top of the cap. If the pressure drops, the band will change colour to yellow and then red, to indicate that you need to boost up the pressure to the correct level.
This is a clever and inexpensive way of eliminating the guesswork about your tyre pressures.
Please contact Carminders if you would like us to obtain a set of these caps for you.
Do you want to save money on your car’s air filter?
Just like humans, your engine must breathe enough air to work properly. If your engine's air filter is clogged or inefficient, your car’s performance and fuel economy will suffer.
Unifilter Australia is the leading Australian manufacturer of a range of air filters to suit just about every car and motorbike available in Australia. Unlike old-fashioned paper and cardboard air filters, Unifilter’s products are made of foam and are treated with a specially formulated oil to trap minute dust particles. They are far more efficient and effective than conventional air filters. What’s more, they do not require replacement if they become dirty! They can be easily cleaned with turpentine and re-oiled with their replacement oil.
You should benefit from improved engine performance and fuel economy, and benefit by saving money at service intervals, if you use a Unifilter product.
Unifilter’s products are exported around the world and are fitted by leading companies such as Yamaha as original equipment on their motorcycles.
