Just a college transportation car...that turned out to be a classic.

He just retired so now it’s more a Cars N Coffee ride.



On another note, one of my clients is an automotive historian and restorer.
He owns a number of early American cars and drives them around Tustin/Orange area regularly.
Not uncommon to see him in a 1908 Carter car or his early 1900’s Chicago Electric.
Many teens and ‘20’s cars to choose from. He drives them locally without a concern.
This is wonderful! I could go for this! And I'd love to meet the gentleman driving around in turn-of-century vehicles -- what a kick!
