Khaled Hodali, 56, of Ramallah, collects old cars. He has three classic cars in his collection: a 1942 Vauxhall a 1953 Mercedes and a 1963 Mercedes.

He rents them out to the people in Ramallah for special occasions.

But he tells people that he collects cars to remember the Nakba.

Hodali claims that his mother owned this exact Vauxhall before 1948, and that he painstakingly tracked it down to an elderly Israeli owner who refused to sell it, but when he died he bought it for $25,000 from his son.

1938 Vauxhall 10-4
He says "this treasure holds the history of our people who have been displaced from their country by the criminal Zionist gangs at the time, as well as the historical legacy that it tells the story of the people lived before the Nakba."

Hodali hopes to "return" to his mother's village in Israel with this car.

As far as I can tell, Vauxhall did not manufacture any cars in 1942, having retooled to build armored vehicles for the war. The chances that this car was driven by his mother seem remote indeed.

But the chances that Palestinian Arabs can politicize literally anything to make an anti-Israel statement is very close to 100%.

Perhaps someone can compile a list of other places that Westerners give billions of dollars of aid that have people with the time and cash to collect vintage cars - or even the time and money to rent them.
