    Margaret Dunning was an amazing woman for driving such a big car at 104 years old. I hope that when she passed away, her car went to a good home and is driven with the same respect and care she had.

    I suppose I should love the Dusey but this unique piece's lines were excessive and extravagant. The seats didn't look stock but what do I know?
    A lot of people love Caddies, I hate them. The jewel of the tail fin era..
    Strangely, I really liked the Nash Healy. Euro-American hybrid. Something you'd see in an English movie.
    I love Morgan 3 wheelers. I prefer the wooden frame. I think Peter Sellers drove one in the movie, “The Party”
    Of course I loved the Packard and the lady who drives it. I'm afraid I am too much a plebeian to parade around town in such a work of art..

    That car would have been a much better pick. There are more people that grew up on Datsuns, Hondas and Toyotas than on Naishs watching your show nowadays.
