The 1929 car is a striking example of a touring open car, being silver in colour and is much sought after.

What is your dream car and why?
The 1924 car is the best in my opinion. I bought it some years ago and when I got it home I looked at the paperwork and discovered that the first owner was Rodman Wanamaker of Pall Mall. I researched him and discovered that I had won the Wanamaker Mile at Madison Square Gardens in New York in 1965. Hence the book on his fascinating life.
