Well, here are some more cars, this time ones that my grandpa Willison owned along with my mom and dad's Corvette. My Grandpa Willison, unlike my Grandpa Frimand never kept his cars long enough to get pictures! So, many of them have come and gone but, these are the ones I have pictures of, and of course he owned the 1921 Chevrolet and the 1948 Lincoln Continental that I now own! Here is what I know:

Model 'T': My grandpa owned a few of these through the years! wish I had one!

1972 or 1973 MKIV: This car was my grandma's and it was driven on road trips to Ohio and it was later replaced by the Seville. My dad's memory of this car was when they went back to Ohio and the flood waters started to rise and nearly flooded them out, but, my dad sped through them to safety with my grandma screaming and grandpa yelling! When they got back to the hotel they saw on the news that the town that they were in had been flooded up to people's roofs!

1977 Cadillac Seville: My grandpa bought this in 1980 with a salvage/stolen title (shady!) and it was like brand new, he drove it for the next 20 years to work and it was sold in 2001 and the guy who bought it fixed it all up, then it was stolen again!

1974 Corvette: This was my parent's vette, and they drove it often, then when I came along they had to sell it!
