Nose in the air... snobbish car???

2001-11-05 by Jeff Caraway

Hi All,

I have what seems a silly question, but after having other people see my car finally, one comment keeps popping up.

\u201cIs the nose supposed to be that high\u201d?

Now, I think I read somewhere that a Marcos GT is supposed to have a somewhat high nose, but it does seem rather high up to me. And this from an outside perspective, not sunk in behind the wheel. Look at the pictures in the group photo section to see what I am talking about.

Does anyone else’s car have the same characteristics? I think I saw a yellow car in the pictures of the California Marcos gathering that looked as if it did the same thing.

Could it be a spring thing since mine came over as a kit? Maybe mine was actually sprung for a heavier engine or something\u2026.

Anyone???.....

Thanks,

Jeff Caraway
