Chasing Classic Cars Episode

Those of you who get the Discovery/Velocity channel on cable of satellite probably have seen the show Chasing Classic Cars with host Wayne Carrini. If you watched last Tuesdays episode Wayne had located two Rolls Royce cars that he eventually took to auction. One was a 1927 the other a 1931 I believe. As you watch the show Wayne is seen in his garage trying to get the 1931 running after picking it up from William Sanger the owner. Did anyone catch the yellow Durant model 614 painted like a taxi cab in the garage next to the Rolls. That's the one that was shown at the Mystic Connecticut car show several years ago. I emailed Wayne and he said he painted for the owner and that William Sanger the owner of the Rolls was the Great Grandson of Billy Durant. Good to see a Durant car in the show.

Hi Mike!
Maybe Wayne can give you a shot of that Durant Taxi??
Would be nice to have it in the magazine?
A picture of him next to it would be interesting..
