Wibbelink to Teheran in 1974 Part1

[@maxborger8573]

prachtig tijdsbeeld uit vervlogen tijden. Wat n mooie herinnering moet dit zijn voor degenen die dit hebben ondernomen

[@fredgrove4220]

My first run to Athens in the early 80's was in a Leyland Marathon with a TL12. Great old truck.

[@michaelwest6238]

fred grove just wondering how long did that take

[@fredgrove4220]

Michael West Best part of 5 weeks, when I tipped out in Athens I had to wait around for a reload.

[@fredgrove4220]

Just memories now, I'm 74 , been off the road a long time now. I had 26 years of doing international, and I loved it.

Old good days... Up the 70s.....bo mobiles, no GPS, no satellites just hard working courageous drivers... Leyland cabs slightly look like Scania 141-111

[@dermotmcglinchey282]

I don’t know where you were getting your information but Sat navigation did not become available for the trucking industry until the end of the 1990s, as for cellphones they started appearing in trucks in the mid 1990s internationally…Scandinavia had a system from about 1984 but only worked in those countries…I went to Syria in 1975 and it was not something I wanted to repeat, I was lucky only one day getting into Turkey and from then onto Damascus with telecom equipment , a beautiful city now destroyed by Putler as he’s done in Ukraine…Driving to the Middle East was fine if you were prepared to endure hardship and living and sleeping in your clothes, showering was a luxury once you left Yugoslavia …

Well, the Marathon, as shown in the video, was the top of the range. It came with a Leyland or Rolls-Royce engine and a range change 10 speed gearbox with little to no synchromesh! Insulation was poor so a noisy but spacious cab. A Volvo F12 was a better option.
