If you own a 1970 Ford Mustang convertible you can make money by making it available for chauffeur driven hire on the Dream Rides where people can hire it for a photo shoot, wedding, school formal or other special occasion.
Paul owns this dark blue 1970 Ford Mustang convertible and for most of the year the car is stored securely in his garage. He wanted to make some extra money to supplement his existing income and discovered it was possible by using the classic car hire website Dream Rides. It is absolutely free to list a Ford Mustang convertible or any other cool car on the website and people can see when it is available, how much it costs to hire and what dates are available.
It means that Paul can choose when to use his classic Ford Mustang as a vehicle that can be hired to make extra money. The best part is, nobody else drives the vehicle but the owner, so you not only get to enjoy driving your vehicle to an event or a special location, but you earn money while doing it.
Using a classic Ford Mustang to make money
The Dream Rides website is an authorised booking platform that enables people to browse different classic, luxury, muscle, limousine or super cars for hire in Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast and other locations. In this example Paul was able to list & promote his dark blue 1970 Ford Mustang convertible for hire on the Sunshine Coast to make it available for photo shoots and weddings.
He nicknamed his American muscle car ‘The Pony’ and this vehicle is considered a timeless masterpiece radiating elegance and raw power derived from the 1970’s. Its gleaming exterior, iconic design, and V8 engine make it a popular choice for people who are trying to rent a muscle or classic car in Australia.
Paul’s meticulous maintenance routine ensures that every time this Ford Mustang is hired it is reliable and ready to be used as a wedding car or a prop for an advertising photo shoot instead of just sitting in the garage most of its life.
As the vehicle is used for income producing purposes, depending on your personal financial situation, it also means a portion of the running costs of the vehicle (or even the purchase value) could possibly be claimed as a tax expense (check this out with your accountant!). So on one hand, making this Ford Mustang available for hire on Dream Rides creates a new way of earning an income and at the same time, some of the expenses of owning this type of car including insurance, registration, maintenance or repairs could possibly be claimed as a deduction.
How much money can you make driving your classic car?
In a short eight week period Paul’s Ford Mustang was hired for 8 x individual bookings from 37 different enquiries that he had received from his free car hire listing on the Dream Rides website. In total this came to $5,500 income from renting his classic car in just a few weeks.
