    What about what your vans should of been stinking of, Old Spice or Bruit 33! Beautiful types of incense that had been burnt to cover up the smoke from the spring valley bottle!
    The waving hand on the dash or rear window with the no fat chicks sticker on the rear.

    The old cable remote TVs were around in the mid 60s on top end black & white TVs, like Kreisler etc.

    Sorry I missed your post earlier.

    The TV was brought into the country (from the UK?) in the very early 1970's (I was only a three or four year old at the time) by one of my father's brothers, who at the time was into all things electronic and operated an electronics store around Padstow area and was always importing stuff. I do remember the TV, just not what brand it was (sorry, I was too young then). From memory it didn't work all that well and Dad bought a (Sharp?) Linitron to replace it, which of course was not as flash as some the push button jobbies that were around at the time.

    I also remember we had a Beta video recorder that also had a remote thus connected by a cable, but that was in the late 70's/early 80's.

    Dave.
