HI TOM....WOULD YOU BELIEVE WE HAD A STAR SEDAN IN THE 20'S. IT HAD SHADES ON THE WINDOWS. FLOWER VASES ON THE INSIDE WALLS, I BELIEVE IT WAS A 1926. DRIVING TO BELMAR IN THE SUMMER ON A DIRT ROAD, WE HAD TO DRIVE WITH THE WINDOWS UP. THE ONLY PAVED ROAD WAS TO ASBURY PARK. MY MOTHER DROVE IT FOR A SHORT WHILE AND HAD AN ACCIDENT WITH A WILNO'S LAUNDRY TRUCK AND NEVER DROVE AGAIN. I BELIEVE WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM PETE TEDESKI, A NEIGHBOR ON BERT AVE. WHO WAS WORKING FOR THE CHEVY DEALER.
