I live a rather frugal life, but one frivolous activity I enjoy is cars. I'm a member of the Wine Country Car Club and the North Bay British Car Club. I've owned or restored some fascinating vehicles, and below is a sampling of some of my favorites.

| Cadillac Eldorado convertible, 1984
I love this car and have owned it for many years |

| Volvo P1800, 1971
This is one of the most esthetically beautiful designs. I enjoyed restoring this car, but it drove like a tank, so I sold it. |

| Lotus Eclat, 1976
I bought this car after it sat in the former owner's garage for 15 years with a blown head gasket. With 160 hp driving 2,150 lbs, it's a kick to drive |

| Chevrolet Corvair convertible, 1964. The car was an older restoration. It handled pretty well, and though I sold it as a research fundraiser, I"ll probably buy another someday | ![]() |
