J'ai fait plusieurs voyages au volant de mon Daf puis ensuite d'un Saurer au milieu des années 70. L'Iran et l'Arabie Saoudite. Revoir toutes ces photos aujourd'hui me plonge dans des souvenirs gravés à tout jamais dans ma mémoire. Nous devions être vraiment des fous pour faire tout ça et pourtant ça nous semblait tellement ordinaire et normal. Ce n'est qu'après des dizaines d'années plus tard que l'on réalise avoir vécu une aventure exceptionnelle en traçant la route sur des milliers de km dans des conditions souvent limites. Exemple le mythique col du Tahir en hiver qui culminait à presque 2500 mètres en Turquie quand on allait direction l'Iran. Le sable du désert aussi sur certains tronçons entre la Syrie et la Jordanie puis en Arabie. Chaque photos de ce montage vidéo me rappelle tout ça. Merci pour ce travail de mémoire,

43 years I am drving all over Europe but the best time for me was driving in to the Middle East greetings from Holland

The best time for my own company was driving to the Middle East for 16 years with 4 cars, years 70-80 .. greetings from Holland to the former colleagues who were also there at the time, including the Londra Camping.

At 14:11 I see with great joy the photo of Chris Hooper's Ford Transcontinental Astran. I had the pleasure of meeting him in Italy and meeting him in Turkey near Aksaray, while he was returning from Syria. He was very personable, and a great traveler. He made many trips to the Middle East, a great man for me. Nice memories. Congratulations, nice video.

Nostalgie d' une époque perdue a tout jamais . 👍👍😉😉

Them old Mack's were horrible things.

I knew a lot of those trucks from back in the day, great memories, hard time, but good times as well. People stopped to helped each other, no trackers or cameras in the cab spying on you. Is there a reason you are using Dave Miller / Roy Peckhams 142 as your thumb nail ?
