Silverstone in the 60's.....

Post by Oldskoolbaby »

Just a quick video of my car being raced by its previouse owner, Ryan Lee, after being purchased from Bill McGovern. I have only just seen this and its the first time Ive seen my car without wheel arch extensions which is slightly weird. I think this was before the 970s engine recieved its 8 port head and injection.

Silverston has certainly changed over the years but apparently not the weather!!

What a fantastic find! Thanks for sharing.

It does look like a Bspd GT doesn't it.

Until I see these clips, I had never seen Lydden Hill of that age. Am really looking forward to taking the car back to these tracks now though.
