Mr. Wonderful (giving his treasure…The Nash)
Rebuilding lives together,
~Women of Worth
Sculla bought her first Nash before she had a driver’s license. It was stolen from her parent’s driveway while she was away studying for a nursing degree. In 1979, Sculla purchased her second Nash (just like Lil’ Creampuff but a hard top) and drove it daily until the engine gave out. Currently she and her brother are repairing it.
Sculla says, “I really appreciate all the work, time and energy those in Nevada County put into Lil’ Creampuff in support of the good works Women of Worth does directly for victims of domestic violence. I’ll take excellent care of Lil’ Creampuff. Thanks for picking me!”
CONGRATULATIONS again Sculla…and many happy memories driving Lil Creampuff!
