She was born in 1911 and loved her cars. In WWII she lived in England (where she was born) and drove an ambulance & “duce & half truck.” She met my Army Air Corp dad & came to America to marry him. She loved to drive & loved all her cars. When we went on trips she would often comment when she heard a trick “double clutch” or make some other movement.
