Cliff Ton 10,466 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Some great shots of everyday street scenes in the early 60s; if you're impressed by Vauxhall Victors, Hillmans Minxes, Ford Prefects, Austin A40s, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Compo 10,328 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Thanks for posting that film Rob, it's brilliant! Love the blue haze that accompanies the scooter club outing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TBI 2,351 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Great footage, I really liked the tester's scooter scrambling near the end. Very skilful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob.L 1,090 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Nothing compares to the smell of two-stroke. And if you notice, the scooter on the tank-testing track has a local registration (LTO), which made me wonder if that was filmed somewhere near Proteus Camp. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NewBasfordlad 3,599 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Don't think it was Proteus, I know that training area pretty well and didn't recognise any of it. More like Bovington the army tank driver training school. T'was fun to watch though and mum didn't wear a skid lid either.............. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trickymicky 57 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 The scooter was a Raleigh Roma, built and registered in Nottingham. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
