Elderly drivers and cars

101 year old driving an 81 year old car!
Notice at the very end when she steps on a little red towel to get into the car so she won't dirty the running board, then picks it up and puts it in the car so she can use it when she gets out! Precious lady!

An amazing lady, 101 years old, driving an 81 year old car who
changes the oil and spark plugs herself! Click on link below:
