Most local vintage car shows or gatherings will feature a sea of chrome-laden vintage cars and trucks that have been either lovingly restored or incredibly well maintained. While those cars are pleasing to the eye, owners of those cars will sometimes drive them in moderation to reduce mileage, rather than drive hard and risk reducing their value.
