EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the world of land speed records. In 1964, Ampol fuel trucks embarked on an epic journey to Lake Eyre in South Australia, eagerly supporting the Bluebird CN7 Land Speed Record attempt. The British-made Bluebird CN7, driven by the legendary Donald Campbell, aimed to break the existing world land speed record and etch its name in history. As we gaze at this colorful image from the 1960s, we are transported back to a time when industry and innovation collided with nature's vastness. A convoy of lorries belonging to Ampol, an Australian company synonymous with fuel supply excellence, traverses through rugged terrain towards their destination. These trucks were not just carrying precious fuel; they symbolized determination and ambition. Lake Eyre provided the perfect backdrop for this audacious endeavor - a remote location that seemed untouched by time itself. Amidst this picturesque landscape lies a caravan of vehicles representing human ingenuity pushing boundaries further than ever before. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its visual appeal but also in what it represents - record-breaking aspirations and unwavering dedication to progress. It serves as a testament to our relentless pursuit of pushing limits and achieving greatness. Preserved within the walls of the National Motor Museum today, this image reminds us of how far we have come while inspiring us to continue reaching for new heights in transportation and beyond.
