white walls are like hens teeth mate most others paint them but as the standard came out of the factory with all black tyres that'll be how she's staying i'm gonna leave the white walls to the cadillac boys.
to be fair i feel a bit guilty about buying it from her, she truly loved that car ,the poor old dear shed a tear when it went on the trailer so i promised when its on the road i would take her for a ride in it whenever i was near her house, she has thousands of picture of her with her husband and the car. she told me that once a year they would go to the lakes for a holiday in it
She told me about when her husband and a few of his freinds dug a bunker just below the ground before he was called in by the britsh army to store the car in so that the germans couldnt torch it when ww2 kicked off. apparently thats what a lot of the german forces did for kicks when they had nothing better to do she told me that her nieghbour had an old indian motorbike from 1930 and three german soldier set about it with iron bars and then beat up her husband afterwards.
She also showed me a scrapbook that she had compiled fron just before WW2 right up to 1972 when her husband died from a heart problem which is when the car went into storage showing what was left of her home and street, i was quite surprised to see all her friends and neighbours smiling on some of the pictures even though the entire street was practically rubble from the night the nazi's dropped a screaming bomb on it
She also told me about their first date which was in this particular car and that was the attachment to it
