It’s your lucky day, I know exactly where this is.. Woodville road Villawood NSW, just past the Mechano set heading towards Parramatta. The pub is still there, the shell service station I think is now a little car yard and just past there used to be Villawood McDonalds which closed down and became Gospel Pianos in the 90s in the Original McDonalds building

@Sonofalewis it is that street and if you zoom into the pic you will see the hotel says Villawood, I know this area well… the street does not continue across, the street on the left is a T intersection, opposite it and Villawood hotel is a large footpath with housing behind it.. the original image fits in better than in the vid and shows the pub better… I created a little private video for you to view the picture in more detail click the link Villawood hotel 924 Woodville Road kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6LEqYeOl9epgKc

I'm a motor racing fan and I spotted the Holden Commodore VK driven by Larry Perkins/David Parsons in 1986 in the Bathurst 1000. The other motor racing photo I noticed was a Holden Torana A9X driven by Bob Muir and Sir Jack Brahbam in the Bathurst 1000 in 1978. 96 VS Commodore of Wayne Gardner taken in 1997. 4 VR Commodore car of Wayne Gardner taken in 1995.
