  • Nice . It looks like the German Trucker Movie " AUF ACHSE"in the 80"

  • @OnkelKiesi i have like this serie too....

  • east anatolia Tahir pass Turkey 1970 thank you

  • Hy Pat. Nice video. To shame it isn't the entire video. If you have time, watch the documentary on my channel about 1985 Australian Roadtrain transport. Have a nice day!

  • Great Stuff Patrick.. I remember hearing about one driver who used to do the former 'east European' runs in the 70's/80s who used to take loads of Polaroid Sunglasses and ladies stockings to exchange for fuel !!..

  • it doesn't look like an easy job;-)my granpa's friend was working for PEKAES driving all over Europe and middle east:-)

  • ... we have here in germany an old tv-series from the 60-70´s truckdrivers too , its called " Auf Achse " , love to watch it when i was a kid ... :-)

  • Hi Pat nice vid. Type "Destination Doha" into youtube, it was made by the BBC in 1977 and is excellent. I have it on DVD. Also there is a good book called "Cola Cowboys" about the Middle East run, written by a journalist who went along for the ride.

  • Fantastic movie. Great to see what trucking was great in the old times.

    Have a good week.

    Liudvikas :)

  • Very nice! Maybe I can buy a DVD somewhere? I will try. It's great!

  • too much driving no thanks lol

  • I love old stuff like this Patrick, days when if it broke down you had no choice but to fix it and get on with it. A fellow Youtuber sent me some DVD's of old transport footage. The english company ASTRA was based in Kent, Ashford, I think, they made a documentary about going to DOHA in the Middle East, brilliant film. Took about 6 weeks to get there, 6 weeks back, then do it all again... Nooooo :-)

    I was 16 when you started driving, just left school... :-)

  • Those guys along with the Astran and other UK drivers are "proper" drivers, not like some of the motorway chauffeurs around today!

  • Saviem and ROMAN was Romanian national trucks! Now on the city of Brasov it fabricates only Roman...and tractors...goood tractors for agriculture!

  • Nice video.
