Thank you for sharing this wonderful memory.

I guess that opposite the clock on the right is Coles cafeteria

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Loved living. Murray farm road in beecroft. Did shopping in Eastwood and Epping loved our lovely old home

Fun seeing how you blended the old and new together

I was born in Carlingford in the 60s. is great to see all these old photos. its a shame the entire area has been sold to the peoples republic of China.

Another Kodak Moment. How's your Hills Hoist or your Victa Lawn Mower? Has the Body Corporate settled with the Developer yet or have you left out of pocket. Europe's great but they're not as advanced as we are, eh? Mate.

One thing I think helps these videos is when you cut to the contemporary photo, remain black and white. It avoids the stigma of the ‘olden days’ being in black and white and helps the viewer more objectively compare the two eras.

Great video, thanks. Good editing with the before and after shots.

awesome presentation… Showing back then, now and back then again really really made it special

So much for Devil-opment its a shit place there now.

Ingenius!

I lived in Barombah rd Epping for 20 years, the highway runs over where my house was now😢

When heart disease and cancer were death sentences. Some things have improved.

This was the area I spent most of my weekends at as a child with grandparents and all the old WW2 vets....and I....was a scallywag 😊

My dad did this race as a private team in a celica they finished the race What an achievement

On the finish podium, George Shephard said the drivers thought they could bring the cars home 1-2-3. His reply was "you do that and I'll drop me daks on the podium." Well they did and so did he. On the Podium, he whipped a pair of shorts from his waistband and dropped them on the floor!

Well, I guess we lowered the average cost. All preparation and all running costs for our Civic #117, was about $8,000. 2 man crew and zero service crew, Just us and whatever we carried. We were aiming simply to make it back to Melbourne and that is what we did. The bonus was we didn't come last! We were the smallest capacity car to finish, 1235cc, and came 87th of 92 finishers. The down side was we hardly remember any of it. We were simply exhausted for about 13 of the 14 days. Must have been young and crazy. 4 flat tyres, a broken speedo cable and a blocked fuel filter were our ONLY mechanical issues.

my home , miss it 😢

FJ Holden 207, I crewed for these guys, Repco engine crapped out just before Mt Isa, fitted another at breakneck speed and back on the road.

When 7 made decent tv instead of the dross they dish up now.

The toughest rally I have ever seen, and I have attended many of the world rally championship rallies in the 70s as part of a film crew. I hate to think how much the factory teams must have spent on recceing and all the other costs associated with the event - but I admire the privateers most.

Was the Cortina a 4cyl or 6cyl.- anyone know ?

Great stuff ! gold. I had a VB and VC Comm both were 202 engines. They were both the same color as this car and had driving lights just like this car lol. and you could take them almost anywhere unlike todays modern cars with their big rims and low ground clearance. I cant u/stand why they chose a 4 cyl for this trip but it did the job well by looks of it.

Need to show this to all the starfire 4 haters. That 4 cylinder commodore did well.

That’s the sweetest thing.

The toe cutter is here

Nothing exciting like that anymore!

how interesting not to see one american car. I wonder why

The geezer with the beard and bouffant looks like the fucking Toecutter.

11:08 Nice use of the tree branch to hide the Esso logo on the building 😁 The tower was redeveloped in 1993 to become the luxury apartments building "Highgate" fabsydneyflashbacks.blogspot.com/2016/08/essohousebecomeshighgate1993.html

Pete Russell led me here

Nice to see railways built BEFORE homes were built to encourage homes to be built , unlike these days. These photos make me realise how much I hate crowded cities. Beautiful homes in a beautiful landscape.

Aussie classic. Love this movie.

Clever

I wanted to know if I can use some of this footage for a review of a movie I’m doing that takes place in 1984 in SF

I love San Francisco in the 80s even though i never grew up during that time

What's the address of the tower at end of movie? Wouldn't mind swinging by there one day.

Does the car still exist?

My God, Paddo and Darlinghurst before gentrification.

Very fitting, Brocky the Marlboro man. Those were the days.

Great movie wang yunsuperb

Do you have the whole film?

I was on this Trip, with my family. We were support in the green Landrover, my dad is the one who loses his flipflop in the mud pushing one of the cars. My mother is seen a few times as well

Was the audio transmitted via a cassette?

😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩😘😘

Amazing no helmets real men those were the days
