The !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! today of 101-year-old Margaret Dunning of Plymouth, Michigan. She has an 82-year-old Packard 740 roadster that she still helps to maintain, apparently. Like Dug the dog from Up , I've only just met her and I already love her.
(Update: While this video is from 2011, something I should have caught in the URL, as of March, Margaret Dunning was !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . And !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , she has had other classic cars — a 1906 Model N and a 1930 Cadillac that she donated to the Gilmore Car Museum — and she worked at a women-only car plant in the 1930s.
This may be the Cadillac Dunning donated to the Gilmore:

That's what I wanna be when I'm old, sitting on my lawn chair in my driveway admiring my 100+ year old Land Rover Series IIA.

I know, right? Except she's polishing the thing and claims she can change the oil and the plugs. And the car is freakin' gorgeous.

I wouldn't be surprised, they're probably super easy to get to and so if you can fit a wrench on them a 5 year could do it.

Is Margaret still driving her Packard?

Thanks for your response
And thank you for the link
I'd like to meet her and see her Packard
She also has a number of the Google listings
Jalopnik should review her Packard and Gawker should interview her soon (today)!
