The fact that there's a bit of black border at top and bottom edges of this video make it an ideal candidate for conversion to 16:9 widescreen. If you have Cyberlink Power Director, that software includes CLPV which will adapt this video nicely to the widescreen format. What CLPV does is take only a few lines of scan off the top and bottom edges, then stretches to fit left & right edges without making anyone in the video look like they've been "raiding the refrigerator"(LOL). Somehow it keeps everything in proper proportion while fitting to the widescreen format.
@@GraftedOliveBranch Moseley Square, Glenelg. At the end of Jetty Road. The Pier Hotel is on the left. It was replaced by The Grand in the early nineties. How do I know I drove these Trams from 1989 to 1993
fantastic footage!
Remember the goodwood viaduct and the Reed beds viaduct at Henley beach very well. The termites held that one together lolo
Believe an old Glenelg Tram is at Old Tailem Town which you can visit all year round. Best to phone ahead just in case. $25 entry well worth it!
Awesome old footage.
I saw a VF white valiant towards the end and a Hillman Hunter so that's definitely 1969 minimum

There seems to be a lot of space around the Morphettville racecourse. Wonder what its like today?
Went to school in Morphetville in the early sixties, main thing I remember is the Lightburn factory.....oh and putting coins on the tram tracks
All that vacant land you can see in the film is chocked full of businesses now
