If your garage smells like gas after parking your classic car, you're not alone. Gasoline odors are a common complaint among owners of classic cars, vintage trucks, muscle cars, hot rods, and custom vehicles.

You shut off your hot rod, close the garage door, and a few hours later the entire garage smells like fuel. Sound familiar? Before assuming it's normal, determine where the odor is coming from.
