car restoration

Some time after my grandmother died we had an enormous job cleaning up her house for sale.

I ordered four new tyres and tubes as the old ones had perished over the years. But I had no idea how to fit them. I also had no idea what to do with the car.

After a few phone calls and a bit of research, it turned out that the man that knows the most about 20HP Rolls Royces lived around the corner from where the car had lived for 30 years! Without hesitation he offered to help get the car out of the garage and to show me how to change the tyres, and tell me a bit about the engine etc.

So where do I attach a rope?? The first job was to work out a way to get it out of the garage enough to change the tyres.

After changing the tyres we had the tricky job of towing it up the very steep driveway. Fortunately we had my cousin, her husband and their Subaru 4WD to help with the task

Finally out of the garage on on the street.
