This is great footage, looks professionally shot and edited, perhaps by Wills Cigarettes? Looking forward to seeing the whole film. Glad to see Robin Widdows is still with us, aged 83. Pity he only got one shot at a Grand Prix.

Another reel for the Patreon site. You'll have to put up with my dulcet tones on this, explaining where I found the film! This is Silverstone in July 1966.

My subscription website won't all be prewar and 50s and 60s footage, it will also be things like this from 1985. All pictures are copyright me and are also unpublished. @CJGrandPrix @GrandPrixDiary @dylanmichael77 @F1History1950

@TheBishF1 @RoyalFamily @POTUS Absolutely, 100% right, Matt.
The Royal Family should not be going anywhere the US at the moment....

@RoyalFamily Please compare your #Easter greeting (above), @RoyalFamily, with that of the @POTUS (below). You simply cannot debase your & the UK’s reputation by sending the king on an official visit to an unhinged, sadistic & foul-mouthed war criminal. You know I’m right. Cancel it now.

@CJGrandPrix ....and I made sure the film was running at the right speed, too!

A brief clip of one of my home movie items, here's unseen film of the 1937 Donington Grand Prix. Excuse the shaky camerawork! @MercedesAMGF1 @rwilliams1947 @CJGrandPrix @archivetvmus71 @dylanmichael77 @F1History1950 @ian_845846 @GrandPrixDiary @gmracingblue

A few screen grabs from another home movie in my archive, with a little help we've worked out that this is the 1936 Donington Grand Prix. Only 90 years old then! @CJGrandPrix @rwilliams1947 Unseen film! @BRDCSilverstone @donington_hist @DoningtonPark

@CJGrandPrix @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenzUSA It certainly was, I have both stills AND film of that. The W165 was driven by Fangio.

@tyrrell005 @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenzUSA Fantastic! That was the day that Moss & Jenks lapped in an SLR?

From my archive, Mercedes at Silverstone in 1967 for a demo run before the Grand Prix. @CJGrandPrix @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenzUSA

Looking at the 1937 Donington film I'm going to attempt to restore it, this section has water damage to the edge of the film. I've made an initial effort as you can see in the second pic. Bear in mind this is 1 frame,there are 24 in a second! @rwilliams1947 @CJGrandPrix

@GrandPrixDiary Holy shit, the driver of that flatbed was an absolute twat. I bet he didn't pay for the damage to that car...

And a more modern version of how best not to retrieve a race car…

It doesn’t look too bad, let’s get it towed back to the pits for a check over.
