Sure don't make them like that today,no need to carry any tools/ spare parts/ no need for a panel beater and the best part no need to holler for O'Brians Glass .

Remember the day when they used to have what was called The Red X Trial.

In case someone wants to Google it the correct name it was Redex Trial. What characters there were in those events. I recall 'Gelignite' Jack Murray, so named for his penchant to lighting the fuse on a stick of Gelly & tossing it out of the car when belting down the main street of any small town in the middle of the night! Try that nowdays.
