His family and the children he once fostered surprised him during a visit to a vehicle museum.
A man who helped foster over 70 children with his late wife said he was left in "shock" after his beloved Rolls Royce was restored.
The Worshipful Company of Carmen, a not-for-profit City Livery Company, took Mr Adams' car to help and, along with some of the children the couple had fostered, surprised him with the restored car.When the time came for Mr and Mrs Adams to stop fostering, their family took out loans and remortgaged their house to buy them a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow - a car they had both dreamed of owning.
Stephen Britt, a past master of the Worshipful Company of Carmen, explained the ancient livery company wanted to get involved because its members knew they could help. Kethry Heather was childminded by Mr and Mrs Adams from when she was just three months old to the age of 11."They were the second set of parents, they were the adults I went to when I was in trouble," she said.
