Finally sorted out the size issue (!) and here is a pic of Patrick Champin driving a Tecno in the F3 race at Magny-cours that year. He was a great buddy of Hunt et al and a fount of knowledge about the 60s racing scene...

Jack still has the Galaxie! He is a very good friend of mine and I have often visited his farm in Norfolk where he keeps the car and many others. In his 60s racing days, Jimmy Clark, Graham Hill and Jackie Stewart often used to stay at his house when racing at Snetterton. He is a good customer of my work which has led to our friendship.
A pity he will not allow the car to be raced though - it has been shown in a few demonstration parades and Lord March tried to persuade him to let it race at the first Goodwood revival St.Mary's Trophy Saloon race, but Jack allowed it to do demo laps only. Lord March wanted a Galaxie so had to have one built and copied the livery of Jack's Willment version shown in this photo. It is still a very quick car and is road registered.

Fred, great shots again! The Alan Mann Cortina was driven by Frank Gardner in the race shown, the 500kms European Touring Car International, Good Friday 1968 at Snett. The works BMW 2002 you posted was driven by Hubert Hahne in the same event. This race and many other events from the 1968 British Saloon Car Chamopionship can be seen on the video 'Classic Saloon Car Racing '60s Style' - Available from all good stockists of racing tapes or from PP Video Ltd in Hereford.
I love it - some terrific nostalgic action.
Here is another great club racer from the 60s, Roger Nathan's Astra GT car.

That is Peter Gethin in the Church Farm Racing McLaren. Church Farm was part of Derek Bell's family estate and the team operated out of a barn/workshop there at Pagham near to Bognor Regis, Sussex.

AK - lovely Merlyn! This is a great thread - I'm learning heaps about the cars and drivers and racing of the '60s which is my favourite era in motorsport. Thanks guys!

Any pics of Robert Grant in the Works TVR Grantura at Le Mans in 63 - apparently it did one lap and retired with a serious water leak!
