It's 1978 and life is falling into place for Harry Barnes.

Tall, blonde and handsome, he works as a junior bank clerk in a remote Australian mining town. He has great mates, a beautiful girlfriend and drives a classic 1968 Holden Monaro GTS. Weekends are spent camping and dirt bike riding through the dusty bush, or cruising the town's main street with windows down and the latest hits blaring.
