History
Originaly bought by my great grandmother in 1975 do get her to the hairdresser and back. It was then given to my grandmother to accomplish the same task. She then got a new car for christmas in 1988 and gave me the car. I was too young to drive at the time so my dad drove it for a couple of years. This love of my life has been in my family for over 35 years and every member of my family has driven it for 4 generations. It truely has a place in my heart.
