"This was the first car that I drove," Jed Hazel, 85, of Perrysburg said of this 1936 Chevy. Mr. Hazel fondly remembered the car which his father owned. During World War II the driving age for farm vehicles was lowered to 12 years old, the age Mr. Hazel learned the drive and got his license. He said he enjoyed coming to car shows, but wished there were a few more cars from the 1930s and 1940s on hand.
