Opel Manta V8 Cruise

This is an old Beta Camcorder (remember those?) movie that I just converted to digital. It's just me driving my 1973 Opel Manta V8 (215 Olds Aluminum, ~200hp) around SW Bakersfield (about 1983?) and shooting some pretty boring video!

Someday these old videotapes will be unplayable, so better to convert them over while I can. My bro let me borrow his old Sony Beta VCR, so I'll be busy converting video whenever I can get some spare time. I takes a lot of time, queuing up the VCR, DVD recorder, copying the files to the PC, editing the movie with titles & fades, and then converting to .MP4 to save some space without much visible compression losses.

If you're an Opel nut, enjoy!!
