Vintage car collection from Maharaja(King) of Mewar, Rajasthan, INDIA

I get amused by variety of cars, especially vintage and so visited this place in Udaipur when we had trip to Rajasthan, India. Amused by the vintage collection by Maharaja of Mewar. Didn't expect that Indian Maharaja owns all these popular foreign made brand cars (Cadillac,Mercedes,Rolls Royce etc.,) during their regime (This might be early 1950's). Captured all the collection and posted below. Car lovers, you will be amused of the collection. Also a personal Gasoline station was arranged for gasoline needs for these cars.However, learned that some of the cars might not be owned by him but by his sub-ordinates and added later in this collection, but surprised these foreign made popular cars made it through during that time in India. Enjoy the ride........
