Tried to get some connection on the DVD to copy to my picture gallery and thereon forward to this site but no success yet..
Others have forwarded cine film footage to fb sites so it must be possible..

Anyone on reading this on here know how ?
Yup - I use this:
https://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html

Import from DVD, edit/cut etc then publish to youtube. I think the demo allows you to post short clips up for free. I have the full copy so if you're stuck give me a shout.

Well after a lot of clicking on and key pressing i copied the DVD into my lap top . The file as expected is too large but i have managed to post on "You Tube"....

Excuse the poor quality of the cine film and some of you may not like the post but Keith and i think it is grand..

Listed under TVR VIXEN S2 WFD 400H and i am about to share it on my Facebook site "Llewellyn Imp Motorsport"..

Many thanks again for the help in transferring the DVD to my lap top gallery

The majority of internet users are in general nice but my experience of car clubs in relation to my field have their nobs..

Going back to 1980 i belonged to the Essex branch of the TVR CC and it was fab..That was the period of when WFD was being unsuccessfully converted to Ford V6 but i was invited on to the scene around High Beech driving my Hillman Avenger Tiger..all the same
Good memories there..Must have been around 1982 {?}.

Here is the direct link to the film https://youtu.be/_AztjFaNcQY

That Red Setter is lovely (and that's a nice Elan Sprint too).

Thank you TR4man.

The Setter was my first personal dog rescued from a neighbour when i lived in Billericay, Essex..Actually the start of my dog rescue activities.. That being my first property as well..
The Elan Sprint was owned by a recruited helper from a Motoring news advert for accommodation for the Mason Stiletto rather than the unsuitable end back garden of the shared accommodation as scene in video...
Disappointingly it didn`t work out the way it should..

Ok..It`s only a cloth TVR badge i use to wear on an old jacket..
Don`t think i will ever have another TVR so you can make use of it..
As far as i know it must be unique ,circa 1980 ish TVR Car Club..
Not as special as the video conversion but just a little bit of appreciation for bringing back a bit of past//

No that video conversion must have been a packet..
I will send the badge by signed for just in case such a period item goes missing..It has happened so many times when i send stuff via ebay as an example.
