For those not blessed with a classic car or for those who do not want the headaches of a vintage ride, it is possible to rent a classic. Perhaps you want to cruise the streets of Los Angeles behind the wheel of a classic Caddy or luxurious Lincoln Continental, then Regency Car Rentals has you covered.
These drop top behemoths are big on classic styling and can make a vacation or special event even more memorable. Regency’s fleet of classics features some of the obvious choices, such as Mustangs and Camaros, but for those who want understated iconic styling there are plenty of other choices available. Although, this rental fleet has a heavy emphasis on the 1960’s models, the equally heavy emphasis on convertibles makes it ideal for service areas (Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Beverly Hills).
Renting ’66 DeVille convertible is probably going to cost a little more than your run of the mill Corolla, but Regency offers to beat all comparable offers. Sure, it is not your car, but it is nice to dream and enjoy the ride. With some of these land yachts are approaching actual yacht prices, so it might make sense to rent one before committing to owning or restoring one.
The suicide door Lincolns are amazing cars, but it becomes difficult to track down replacement parts let alone performance parts for the older models with the 430 engine. Fortunately, the folks at Regency use Lincolns that are equipped with the 430’s replacement, the 460 cubic-inch engine. But again, let them worry about the parts, the restoration, and maintenance, so you can just enjoy the drive.
