Framed Classic Car Art
Cars that are more than 30 years old can be included in the category of classic cars, while those who are older than 100 years are regarded as antiques. While there is no consensus worldwide about which automobiles belong to which category, FramedArt.com has the best looking ones featured in its collection of framed classic car prints.
This includes some of the first vehicles built at the end of the 19th century, but also iconic cars that can still be seen on the roads, driven by eccentric millionaires.
In the United Kingdom, classic cars are divided into many categories, depending on the time of manufacturing, with the two world wars being important milestones. Vehicles that are not older than 30 years are generally not accepted in the category of classics, although some cars are regarded as collectible regardless of when they were constructed. Many of the vehicles celebrated in framed classic car prints are now used exclusively for recreational purposes, as they are more difficult to build and less safe.
Some of the most popular framed classic car prints depict those vehicles that competed in important racing events in the 20th century. The Grand Prix of Monaco and other competitions scattered all over Europe, used to bring together some of the best manufacturers. These try to prove the superiority of their cars by winning the races, before making adjustments to those vehicles to be compatible with every day driving conditions.
