My family traveled around Australia for 14 months from December 5th 1980 , till Feburary 1982 in a Toyota Landcruiser and Caravan. I was 14 .Best year of my families life. It was kind of an end of an era of the old Australia. It was the time Australia was 100% true blue. Being a kiwi with an Australian mother, the family had a real connection with Australia growing up, so this is the only year in my life I can remember every day of.A truly magical experience.
We did the same in 1974. Hired a caravan and did the snowy mountains from Adelaide. And a road trip to Perth. Australia died by the end of the 80s. Multi culturalism is a bad thing.
@@theflaca yes , more like unsuitable immigrant cultures bringing their rediculous religions and beliefs with them to your beloved country..Australia has lost its unique identity.
Wow! I've watched a bunch of NFSA films from the 60s and 70s which bring back memories of my childhood but this one is actually nostalgic! The simple friendships we had before technology complicated everything. The beautiful country it still is but also it's been complicated too much
I did this clockwise back in 84 before all the tourists came in. Starting from York WA and went visiting Monkey Mia and back in those days there wasn´t even a caravanpark at that particular spot and only half a dozen of visitors next to a copple of local fishermen. It took me around 6 weeks to do the roundabout with some labor in Yarrawonga with my other relatives who lived overthere. Such a beautiful time to spend in my early 20´s over there.................
Classic 'straya. Good stuff. I was 8 when this is meant to have been made, living in Brissy. Funny seeing the city at the start the way it was back then.
Bloody keen traveling in the Landy. Would of been better off in an FJ155 Cruiser. No way the Land Rover never broke down. Lucky fuel was cheap. I could fill my car up for 4 bucks in the 70s and a beer was 36 cents. It's all relative I guess but one of the best things about Australia is that you can still do this however, I wonder for how much longer ?
mate you can watch a 1000 shows of australias landscape and you will still never knowour landscape my friend ... it changes throughout the day shadows make the landscape look different

those days were the greatest so far.
Australia. White. Anglo. Little crime. No Middle East crime squad, Best place in earth, back then.

And no one said "awesome"
Nice memories
Went camping in 1977 in a long wheelbase land Rover just the same it was fantastic 😍. Not flash, just basic, but bloody good fun.
15:59 - This is now officially a 70's Australian film.
No, they didn't have WiFi, and if you told the kids of today how great it was, they would think you were having a lend of them.
I love the music that you hear throughout the video.
18:06
So true
I can relate to this. I like to travel, to visit various parts of the country, the world.
In 1995 I did Au round trip on BMW R1100RS 23,000 kms over 4 months solo
and now you have a pepe picture, sad
Wow that would have been so mucj fun
Took me 6 months in 83 on a Z750. Childhood dream ticked off😅.
Gotta love the sound of the start of the ABC news😅.
thanks for posting these. are ya'll doing 4k scans and new uploads for all of these films? we appreciate your work.

"Ask the Leyland brothers," they'll tell you---they spent more time fixing their Land Rovers than driving them!
Love NFSA.
Adam and Suzie lived happily ever after!
I'd love to go back to the 1990s in this video
@Faqyur Ma'ama The 1990s still makes sense
Onlh this was clearly from the 1070s.
Who takes a tent these days , you need a 120k van😅 ?
A staged trip around Australia but still cool
The guy with the guitar always gets the girl😅.
23:26 . I may be wrong but I reckon that's Kitty from the Sullivans (Susan Hanaford)
Yes it is her.
Because its her.
Love it !
Pre Army this was my dream
Didn't Tom get in trouble for being responsible for someone getting killed on set? Maybe ask Siggy.
This is only possible when energy is cheap & plentiful. In the future, it's not going to be... ever. And forget electric cars. It's not scalable.
That's what they said in 1974
Old diesel engines can run on bio fuel, old fry oil isn't hard to convert.

Which cities or locations of Australia were filmed, in sequence of that film? Next year, I will know the landscapes of Australia.

Caio C Silva a lot of it is Queensland
You can no longer camp near ANY inland water because flooding over the decades enabled crocks to migrate EVERYWHERE 😢. Can't swim bloody anywhere now
7:17 yes ok they are friendly but there bad bloody gossips too i no that much.🤦♀🧑🎓🧑🏫🧔♀👵👴👱♂
