Hi Ross , It would seem that facial hair and natty hats / outfits were the order of the day in the 70's :-)Originally Posted by Ross Hollings
In order to show a few people I have just roughly copied this short snippet of ( silent ) 16mm film of a night time service break for the Fiat and Masport Teams in the 1977 Radio NZ Rally.
Note the denim caps and other fashionable items worn ( love those Masport jackets though )
That's Jim Donald with the extra large sideburns working on getting the front wheels to point straight again.
Ari sure did a number on that poor car ! It's a tribute to the crew to have kept him in the event.
This looks like it's in a service station forecourt and it's probably the night before the Mystery Creek stage.
Although this is low - res footage at the moment I will have it professionally transfered in the new year
