Default 102 Year old driver of 82 year old car

I just read a very inspiring story of a 102 year old woman in MI who drives a 1930 Packard. She claims that she got her driver's license at 12 years old, and sometimes changes her own oil. If interested, please click on the link

I bet the mainenance history is more detailed than a doctors records!!!

I am guessing a fair amount but nothing crazy - I think she knows what she has!

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Torque it down till it breaks off, then back it off 1/4 turn.

I only post the best, and "Yes", she is one-of-a-kind. Definitely not afraid to get her fingers dirty. I saw this a couple weeks ago, and then, our local FOX station re-displayed the link. That was my cue to share.
