THE GREATEST CLASSIC CHASE
Co-produced by MRG International (Russell Goodrick) / Studio 007 Pictures.
This video contains footage of the original 1968 London-Sydney Marathon and captures the action of the 1993 re-run - particularly on the Australian leg.

A valuable, historic and well produced video for every Marathon enthusiast.
Russell's commentary and his participation provides a 'personal' approach as he travels and interviews a number of the drivers and crew.

This video highlights the fun and the tragedy of the 1993 Marathon.

A 'fleet' of 5 Austin 1800's (Landcrabs) were kindly donated and sponsored by Ken Lyle as 'media support' vehicles.

This video represents great value at AUD $70.00 + p.p.
Contact Russell Goodrick to order this wonderful piece of history.
