Cult nothing like a good set of road track majors to get you around our sun burnt country.

Ha ha yep. Too bad they're NLA.

I love the 40 ranger bumper with the three tyres bolted along it to no doubt to save wild life.

Wow great seeing those old cruisers.

thanks ozcruiser; love old footage. the west ausie country shown similar to parts of mine. with long patches of mulga scrub in between haha. would love to see footage like that from the mid 60s!

someone once posted chasing buffalo circa late 70s? be good to file old aussie footage together in a thread somewhere.

I had a few mates head west in the 70's they ended up chasing buffalo down running cut down 45s similar to this. Tough job someone always had a large side arm in case the s*** hit the fan.

How marketing material has changed. I do find the old boy out for drive in his pressed white shirt and loafers amusing.

Its also good to see period modifications done to these vehicles like the low impact bumper mod ( tyres) and the stock positioning of things like licence plates, especially on the style sides.

found that other old footage I mentioned and gave it a bump in the thiess thread post #39 on the 25 page. don't be put off by the slow start.

 

[ozcrusier]

There's a 45 in this promise

Wow! Thanks for sharing the vintage footage LC's doing what they were designed to do.

while trying to find my way around the net i did find part 2 of this training video. apologies I don't know how to attach it. actually the main reason I initially joined this forum was to upgrade my computer skills; but its a slow process!
