Very few of these remarkably quick little Marcos Gullwings have survived. Most were engaged in motorsports competition in the early 1960s. Jackie Stewart and Jackie Oliver drove similar cars early in their racing careers. This particular car for sale is a "Luton" Gullwing, with the later, all-fiberglass doors and one-piece windscreen. There are very, very few of these cars left (not many were built to begin with). Having raced chassis #2006 for some years, I found my Luton Gullwing intuitively easy to drive quickly. They have a stable, long-ish wheelbase and the Ford pre-crossflow motor sits low and to the rear in the chassis. Judging from the photos, this chassis looks in need of significant attention but it is a real Marcos Gullwing and would be a welcome and competitive addition to historic racing circles once restored.
