The next step is an instagram page for Modestines followers. Ask a grandchild what that is, and to do it.

I wonder what that does to the toe-in - looks like it should increase it but does that help with cornering by putting more lock on the outer wheel?
That reminds me of a 1925 road test of a Twin Cam Salmson which had Perrot brakes which are notorious for braking the inner wheel when cornering - the tester remarked that this helped with the cornering!!
Great photo though. Mike

RHDs but I don't know the number plates. Also a front grill is missing? Where is the location?

Can't help much with that Richard. I stumbled across the image whilst searching for something else. It was on one of those image sharing sites that just shows a picture with no information. Looks late 60's in the UK ?

Number plates on those two Flavias look Australian to me.

Hard to pinpoint. At first it looks like an old London area but there are the plates and I only recognise a Maxi and BMC 1100 in the background. Can't identify the others. Shame the graffiti on the wall is blurred. Might have given a clue. If I was offered one of the Lancia's would it be the coupe for elegance or the Sport for weirdness? Hard choice.

You could well be right. I cropped my picture very slightly to concentrate on the two 'proper' cars in the photo. The original image shows an angry looking ( Australian/ American style ) truck that I don't recognize. Enlarging the image in 'Pictures' I would guess that the rear ends are left to right Austin / Morris 1100 Something Aussie / American Fiat 124 Sport Coupe Mk2 Cortina Escort Volvo Maxi Ford Falcon Station Wagon.

It looks like there are three digits between LOL and 745, so my guess is New South Wales.
