Graham meets Roothy - West Australia, the first trip.
People have been asking me to find this old classic - the first time WA contributor Graham Cahill was introduced on camera. What follows is a trip where Graham lends Roothy his Shorty Nissan and Roothy naturally takes plenty of care of it - not.....

Weirdly feels like looking back 50 years lol, old jocko was just an idea back in these days 🤣

@ultimateadventuresblog6564 Год назад

jocko is Graham and roothys love child.. Maybe even from this trip :) 🤣🤣

Jocko still in his dads jocks

The master and the apprentice! Now Graham is looking like the old fella on the new 4wd247

@the_curry_cruiser Год назад

Thanks for sharing Roothy! I really enjoy watching the original show. No competition about how cool your car is, just building friendship and sharing time in the Aussie bush with ya mates.

@dolguldur4706 Год назад

Graham himself is a legend...roothy however,is papa legend 🤘🏻

@Dat_0ne_Guy Год назад

i remember back when theses old patrols where everywhere now there not so common, all the ones you find are either rusted out to the roots or beaten to high heavens. makes me tear up seeing the old show, i can still remember Christmas 8 years ago watching these on the disc sets the old thin plastic cover ones. i loved every minute of footage, the Hustle and effort that went in to those is 10fold to what we see today. thanks for building my childhood roothy i owe it all too you..... merry Christmas to you and your family have a safe one.

@conservativesniperhunter7439 Год назад

Bloody awesome, there’s nothing better than watching a video of Roothy on Christmas Day while having a cold beer after all the relatives have gone home 😀👍.

@headingscrub9035 Год назад

I got a 12 month subscription to 4WD Monthly back in the early 2000’s. The promo was a free Kangaroo jack. Sure enough one turned up at the post office for me-good quality one too I still use it all these years later how good is that ay thanks for the memories Roothy

@Questionabledecisionmaking Год назад

Never seen any of the early stuff I’m purely a RU-vid only fan this is cool to see this stuff be cool to see an episode now where he comes back for one last trip

@IleneOva Год назад

I remember when this guy Graham over took my stock 60 series on Brand Highway in that thing. I could hear his muddies singing on the tarmac as he passed me And I just looked at my passenger and shook my head and said look at this goose. Then I saw him on a 4WD Action dvd And thought I Know that Pootrol and the when I saw the guy that owned it I just thought. Yep it all makes sense now.

@peterpetkovic1463 Год назад

I am a loyal Roothy fan, in my opinion never bite the hand that feeds you. It was pretty obvious Roothy was stragically asked to step away or whatever so Graham could take over4wd action or be the main man. It Roothy stride he took it on the chin and moved on... full respect 🙏 for the bloke keep up the good work buddy Australia loves you.. and appreciates you experience and commitment to the 4wd industry..because of you heaps of people got into camping and 4wd driving and cooking, exploring etc.

@stevegraham3817 Год назад

Or did Roothy, Hasbeen and Johno decide to take a punt on their own doing LowRange. I remember Roothy announcing his leaving to concentrate on the Don't Lock The Gates mission, and 12 months later Low Range came out. Was there a no competition clause for 12 months.? Many questions we will never know for sure.

@Steve Graham you are entitled to your opinion ok

@stevegraham3817 Год назад

@@peterpetkovic1463 Or you could do some research and see if it is only an opinion.

@peterpetkovic1463 Год назад

@Steve Graham Roothy is the gentleman he is and loves the 4wd industry camping etc big business corporations have taken over the industry because big money etc can be made and people's ambitions and ego's are on full show... for everyone to see. True character of a person is always exposed. It doesn't matter what anyone says proof is in the pudding as they say... Sometimes it best just to walk away and let people do what they want. Having your pride intact and reputation is everything. Least said is best said.

@wanderingoglethorpe Год назад

Love the old episodes Roothy and hello from the states! It's so interesting seeing the origins of my favorite 4wd show! Watching the new and old episodes have definitely made me want to come over and check out your beautiful country.

Great episode, who doesn't like a trip down memory lane,eh? I'm from UK started watching old EP's form different people due to illness back in '18. Got to say it's a wonderful Country. However not knowing the history of what happened after have two channels, can someone give a brief rundown as to what happened?

How young was Graham! Haven't seen this episode in years. Thanks for posting it up Roothy. I'll get over to Laclin one day for a drive on the dunes👌 Not sure about jumping sand dunes though but hey, this was years ago so who am I to say anything about it. Seen people doing it up Stockton and then we lost more access soon after👎

Roothy I remember the first Toyota s in Canada. Fell in love right away . The Japanese reverse copied the chev 250 cid eng. The Willys bodies wagons , pick ups ect. Great timeless looking trucks. The American built flat head motors were just not that great for a truck. A GMC 292 was good. then& now good Diesel is the way to go!! Cheers Mate. P.S. Hows your lovely wife & family?

@Dylansventures_42 Год назад

Hey mate, from what iam aware of it has recently been all fenced off now unfortunately. It is actually all private land anyway. The land owner decided to close it off as he/her was sick of the rubbish left behind in the area and the way people where treating it. This is only what i have hurd. I know it is closed off but not 100% sure if the info of the story is correct.

@georgedillman5004 Год назад

@@Dylansventures_42I appreciate the info. Shame about the closure, however, if it's true about the clueless bogans ruining the place, then it's to be expected really.
