Entry list information from A Record of Grand Prix and Voiturette Racing, Volume 8 1965-1969 (Paul Sheldon and Duncan Rabagliati of the Formula One Register, St Leonards Press, 1994). Willment cannot really be said to be the the tenth marque to have produced cars for the 3-litre Formula 1, as the Willment F1 was only a BRP chassis mated to one of Paul Emery's Coventry Climax 'Godiva' engines.
