"The car has now been sold to a collector 2500 miles from me in another Prov."
If "Prov" means province, then I'll assume you live in a Canadian province somewhere.

"Most of you I am grateful to, but there is always one who has to be sarcastic and him I will ignore. I am sure most of you are on here to be helpful even when I advertise to sell it"
I checked your previous post (Sep 2015) to figure out who you meant. If it is AB, let me assure you he probably is THE most helpful person on this site. Check his posts. I think he might even be around your age.

Your posts were not informative and your profile gave no clue as to where you are located. People, at minimum, would like to know if the prospective vehicle is nearby.

"Being female and 81 yrs of age I could not drive a stick anymore. (knee problems)"
For many older people, a car provides them with freedom. If you are otherwise healthy, I suggest you keep your license and get an automatic. Don't become housebound, even in winter.
