Remembering Fred Scatley

Moderators note from TimD:

Forum member Fred Scatley died on December 27, 2002. He was a remarkable photographer, and a respected and liked member of our forum community.

Several people have asked that a thread of his photographic work be set aside as a tribute to him, and so we have gathered as many examples as we could find among the posts on the forum.

If you know of any more, and would like to share them in this thread, please feel free to do so.

Cyd Williams - Formula Atlantic Brabham BT40, Snetterton 1973

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 18:56 (Ref:469609)

This is the Kincraft at Snetterton in June 1966 with Robin Darlington as driver

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 19:16 (Ref:335919)

This meeting was rather wet, Crystal Palace in I think 1968.

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 19:21 (Ref:469610)

Reg Gubbings has been mentioned and this is his Anglia

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 19:24 (Ref:469611)

I think this is Dr Merfield

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 20:19 (Ref:335970)

This is oversteer, Barry Pomfret at Woodcote

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 20:25 (Ref:335976)

I think this is 1968 Brands G Hill

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 20:29 (Ref:335980)

Same meeting J Rindt

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 21:17 (Ref:336016)

I think this car was called a Cannon and this shot was taken in 1966 at the new russell bend at Snett. What happend to it?

Fred Scatley · 17 Jul 2002, 21:27 (Ref:336029)

As mentioned in another thread John Brittan Etc, how about Allen Woode his self prepared car was a match for the rest and at one time he held a number of circuit class records.
Here he is on the front row at Snett in the late sixties

Andrew Kitson · 17 Jul 2002, 22:27 (Ref:336091)

Great photo. That looks like John Quick on pole with Rod Longtons Red TVR Grantura behind Woode's Sprite. Not sure about the other E-Type, Peter Archer perhaps, any ideas?
Great days watching from on top of the pits at Snett.
How about this one of Peter Gaydon in lotus 23B in '66 versus Willie Green's Ginetta G12 at Silverstone.

Roger Clark · 17 Jul 2002, 22:51 (Ref:336111)

I suggest that Fred Scatley's Graham Hill picture is from the 1969 Race of Champions and the Rindt picture is from the 1970 version of the same race.

Andrew Kitson · 17 Jul 2002, 23:00 (Ref:336119)

Cyd Williams - Goodwin Racing F3 Brabham BT21, 1968 at Snetterton.

Fred Scatley · 19 Jul 2002, 23:09 (Ref:337795)

Brian Muir and Willie Green at Snett in 1966 I think

Fred Scatley · 19 Jul 2002, 23:16 (Ref:337801)

Spotty Muldoone? not sure which way to go. Brands late 60s

That's the boy

Think the photo is the entry to Druids with Post 5 in the background. Cannot recognise any of the marshals (including myself).

TimD · 20 Jul 2002, 09:37 (Ref:337964)

Looking at programmes, I would say that's possibly March 6th 1966, for the BRSCC Edward Lewis Trophy. I think Anglia 171 is P de Banks, and Mini 186 is BT Cox. If I'm right, Brian Muir, Gerry Marshall, Ken Costello, Pat Mannion and John Rhodes will have been in that race somewhere.

Fred Scatley · 20 Jul 2002, 21:31 (Ref:338380)

Another rather wet race BOAC500 I think 1968-69

Fred Scatley · 25 Jul 2002, 21:49 (Ref:342854)

As Yimkin has been mentioned I thought I would post a picture of my Austin Seven that was modified by Yimkin in 1961 Polished head and valves Sprite cam and Distributer no damper in SU and lighter carb spring, The firm was called Gordon and Glynn, in Codagan Plce London. There was a Yimkin club car and I think a FJ. I did a few hillclimbs and autocross with my Mini

Fred Scatley · 25 Jul 2002, 21:53 (Ref:342856)

This was taken at Snett in Oct 67 Willie Green Ginettas

Fred Scatley · 25 Jul 2002, 21:56 (Ref:342862)

Another from same meeting

Fred Scatley · 25 Jul 2002, 22:12 (Ref:342875)

This is the picture I tried to post the other day of the Toleman VW at Brands

Fred Scatley · 25 Jul 2002, 22:18 (Ref:469612)

This isn't the Kincraft Sports Car is it?

Fred Scatley · 25 Jul 2002, 22:28 (Ref:342899)
