Mack ......... nothing but M A C K pix

Very significant photo that one. I was subbieing for Hartridges (sign on door) and got a load of GMH parts to Sydney from Melbourne. When I got to Dandenong they had half a load plus a brand new Oldsmobile Toronado - front wheel drive - to go to the Sydney motor show as a crowd puller for GMH.

Called in to The Golf House at Marysville, burned down in the big fire a few years back, where my parents and friends were staying with the owner, Dad's old schoolmate. One of the families had this good looking bird with them, she is somewhere in the crowd ogling the car. Anyhow, one thing led to another and that same bird has just brought me a cup of coffee 53 years later!

I was going to comment on the Olds, but your story is much better.
Always good seeing someone have a win.

You must've been a cradle snatcher, Lang.

Yeah. I was 18 and she was 19.

One of you has aged a lot better than the other.
