@fomocoboy - sorry, the top three finishers in the 1968 London to Sydney Marathon were -

1. Andrew Cowan - Hillman Hunter

2. Paddy Hopkirk - Austin 1800 (!!!)

3. Ian Vaughn - Ford Falcon GT

Sorry OsbornTramain, in the USA, it's "Plymouth Makes It." "Plymouth Makes It" was sung to that tune for it's 1970 model year ad campaign.

Great, cute ad, I own one Hillman Hunter and I love her !

[OsbornTramain]

Wow, the song, "Here Comes Hustler"....in the USA, it's "Here Come's Plymouth"...Chrysler really use to recycle it's tunes and melodies for different brands.....just like the "Hey Charger" song and "Chrysler, Coming Thru" being the same song.
