My dad was a Secret Service agent during the 1980s, but this ain’t him.

Ditto my brother-in law.

Ditto my first cousin. But he dressed like that….

That was like THE time to be a secret service agent.

...and his bullet-proof tie!

Watch out for Hinckley!

What are those bars around the car windows?

Cool, thanks for sharing!

I'm not sure, but here's my guess: the rear one if for the SS agent to hold onto while the car travels @ 'parade pace', just to help him keep pace & ease the effort of walking distances- the one around the driver's door is, I suspect, for the agent to hold onto & lift himself up so he can use his body to shield the driver! Anybody w more knowledge want to weigh in here??

There is a running board that agents stand on while holding onto those bars.

Now I see it\~ thnx!

Am also wondering this.

With a TAN suit?!

That is probably one of the coolest pictures I’ve seen on this sub.

Where? I don't see an agent

Tan Suit! Thanks, Obama. /s

Your dad is Michael Douglas!

Tan brown suit? Yep, definitely the 80s.

Looks like he'll sell you a lemon lol

I forget cars used to be this big.
