Default Early cars

Will need to find some pics but one of our first cars I can remember my mother having was a 1948 straight 8 Buick. She used to inherit cars from her father, sometimes it was his old personal car (like the Buick) or sometimes one of the office cars like a clapped out Austin of early post-war vintage.
My father had a range of interesting cars including Amilcar and 30/98 Vauxhall. The first one of his I can remember was a Rover 5 light which belonged to his mother and had almost no paint left. I was embarrased to be driven to school in it until he sold it and bought a Bugeye Sprite.
But the car I grew up with was a 1959 Pontiac which we kept into the mid 70s.
Pics to come in due course.
