My grandmother and my Touring...both born in 1924.
She was a “Rosie the Riveter” during the war and worked on B-24 Liberators. Her husband was captured on Corregidor, survived the Bataan Death March, the Hell Ships and years of slave labor in Japanese mines.

Re: 24 Models
I drove the 25 RPU to the Dollar General today and met a women born in 1917! Her dad bought his first car, a model T, in 1923. She said that he struggled with it because he was used to dealing with horses and mules, not throttles and brakes!
