Isn't interesting that Larsen never had death threats leveled against him for that cartoon? Different times not so long ago.

We weren't killing their friends and relatives on a massive scale in those days.

@edgarblythe,

Australia I'm guessing - that's a red gum holding an old Ford Falcon (although it could be a Zephyr) - can't help but think I've gone past this in on a school bus excursion - and had kids yell out "Look, a ladies' driving school". We were such sexist little shits in the 7os.

I was right on the first two - but this is after I left school and I think the closest I ever got to Muckleford was Mount Macedon in 2003.

I had a Falcon pick up of the same body style.

@Builder,

I'll defer to your knowledge - but XPs came with a bunch of names, weren't they all 'Falcons'? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Falcon_(XP)

I posted the same image on faceplant a while back, and got told by a collector the details. My gal had an XM 2 door pillarless coupe. Still miss that rig.

Old Couple Tries (and Fails) to Walk Down an Up Escalator
Not sure why bystanders didn't point this out to them on their way up the same escalator.

Me either - but I don't get paywalled - must be geo-blocking. Actually it's probably not that either found it through google image search. Beats me.
