It had a special engraved name plate on the dash board. It way cool car. She drove it for years, as she tended to do. Eventually it came to me. And finally I gave it to a youngster, who was probably the same age as the car at that point. He wanted to refurbish it. I hope he did. It was a wonderful car. Only one better that I ever drove was my original car, a VW bug. Now that was a great car.
