My dad’s Zephyr had a bench seat in the front with a column gear change. There was a wide-ish pull down armrest in the middle of the bench seat which I used to sit on as a small child so I could see out of the front window.
Then there was a Mini van owned by the lady down the road, which when it was her turn to do the cubs/brownies run we would all pile into the back of that. Up to eight kids at a time with nothing other than a sheet of foam rubber on the floor to soften the bumps. Safety/restraints took the form of bracing yourself against a fat kid on the corners.
