This 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25, serial No. GRW34, started life as a sedan bodied by Corsica Coachworks of North London. Following World War II was given its new body style from Jersey Coachbuilders in the Channel Islands. 2 owners since 1950's. All original woodwork. Sealed in garage 1960's through 2002
The Rolls-Royce 20/25 was a so-called “entry-level” model made by the company to complement the costlier 40/50 Ghost during the recession that followed World War I. Made from 1929 through 1936, it proved to be the most popular early Rolls-Royce model, with more than 3,800 examples made, 70 percent of which are roadworthy today. The 3.7-liter, overhead-valve inline-six engine made 65 hp and shifted with a four-speed gearbox, offering the luxury of synchromesh between third and fourth gears. It is estimated that about 50 became shooting brakes, with about half of those remaining to this day.
Went to auction May 12, 2021. Just the thing for a picnic or skeet shoot. Andy Warhol had one !
 
1950 DeSota Deluxe Carryall. My parents had a 1951 model same color. Leather, real wood and stainless interior. Rear seat folded down thus car was called a “hidden” station wagon. Same design from 1949 to 1952 with several models. A well built tank of a car. Mom used this car for 14 years. 59BA181E-8840-44E9-A5E4-780AF86ED1D6.jpeg

1981 Corvette. Black exterior, beige leather interior. A great car to drive but a bitch to keep clean and tune up. The vette I had looked exactly like the last picture with dark tinted rear window. Kept mine for 12 years, wife hated it; I loved it and miss it. With hindsight should have traded wife and kept the vette! It was my favorite car. Vette s are not small cars...wide so they handle well and stick to the road. Could do 80 on clover leaf exits without a problem, stuck to the road.

Funny story, once on an expressway going up a mountain, a guy in a regular old fart cheap car filled with his wife and kids, pulled along side me and kept goosing his gas, I looked over and saw the guy and his kids were laughing looking and pointed at me as I was going only 60, he kept this up and I thought him an asshole trying to show off to his kids and so I got tired of his goosing his gas and wanting to race me so I spoiled his fun as just pushed the gas peddle down.The vettes ass sat down and it tookoff like a rocket leaving that assshole in our dust. It was fast as hell and handles great. I read a quote somewhere that if you have a fast sports car you don’t have to drive fast because you know you can go faster than the others, and the other all try to go faster than you cause they know they can’t.
