Dodgy car repairs 1966 film.
Although the Holden car predominates, there are some good shots of a range of British and American machines, and some footage to put Arthur Daley to shame!

That brings back memories of my Sunbeam Alpine. The previous owner had completely covered the underside with a flat sheet of glass fibre. Once a suspicious MOT tester on the point of failing it called me under the ramp to take a look. He demonstrated how he could push his screwdriver up through one of the rear chassis legs. He was correct in thinking the car was rusty but he picked the wrong spot and I demonstrated that there was an equivalent completely circular hole on the other rear chassis leg.
