What you could get away with in 1959

l love the commentary on this

 

Those were the days..

 

Even a woman could build it ,I bet I would struggle...

 

I had that model Lambretta too - look what I missed

 

The thought of riding a lammy with what amounts to a wing on top worries me.

 

Two young ladies, Sir? In shorts? Oooh. Suits you.

 

Does beg the question Bern what you were Googling for when you found this...

 

Here are some more ladies and motor cars...

 

Oh the things I got away with in 1959, I used to run around the house naked, I'd lay on the carpet playing with my winky, sometimes I would do a woopsy and everyone would say oh dear look what Barry's done, no that wasn't 1959 that was yesterday

 

I don't think your carpet fitter's ever really recovered from the experience. He still needs to have counselling sessions.

 

Me too - In '64 to '66 I had a 1959 LD125 and later on a 1961 Li 150 - my gf at the time wore a mini skirt on pillion - lots of horn blasting (Ooh - er matron) as a result
