Description of 1970 Other Makes

If you're a fan of fast yet unusual sports cars then read on. Does the thought of driving a Jaguar XKE or Austin Healey seem just a too bit ordinary? If you like cars like TVR. Morgan. Alfa Romeo. Jensen. Peerless. Turner. Lotus. Sunbeam. Triumph. Devin. and other unusual sport and SCCA race cars then please continue. The Marcos is a highly distinctive car with its uber low profile body and outrageous styling. These cars were no slouch in the performance department either. Like many small British car manufacturers. they were fitted with a variety of engines over the years. This particular model is a very rare (one of 4 imported to the US) with the inline 6 cylinder Volvo engine and 4 speed transmission. Marcos had transitioned from a wooden monocoque chassis to a steel chassis just a year prior. These cars were rare when new and though rarely seen today are appreciating rapidly in value. This car sat for a number of years and needs a full restoration. It hasn't run for years but all the mechanical parts are present. The body will need restoration but fortunately it is made of fiberglass and easily repairable. The 4 matching Cosmic wheels make one feel like a groovy era rock star such as Rod Stewart. Edwin Star of War. and John Walker. nbsp; whom among others all owned and drove a Marcos during this time period. Fortunately. none of the mechanical parts are made of unobtanium and can be easily sourced. There is a strong club presence that can help with all bits and bobs that one will need to restore this car and get it back on the road. Please look closely at the pictures. This car will need a lot of work but when done you will have one fast and unusual sports car. This car came to me with a open transferable New York state registration. New York is not a title state for this year car and this is the document used to transfer ownership. This document is good for export and should be good for a title in all states. Please check for yourself in your state. Please email me for any further questions.
