Fortune, so the saying goes, favours the brave. An update to that maxim to fit the 2022 modern man or woman would be fortune favours the patient. Because patience is the currency in the restoration of vehicles, more specifically the much-adored classic cars.
If then you are a man not known for your Biblical patience, or a woman who comes from the so-called microwave generation, you might consider giving the classic car restoration a sharp swerve. “This business has taught me patience. This is one business that requires a lot of time. If not, you will cut corners,” says Bharat Pitriola, the 33-year-old proprietor of Diastar Auto Care Ltd and owner of many classic cars.
