E, Thanks for the post and information on the car. I had seen the video before I bought the car from Anthony. Can you assist with any additional history of the car? I have all the records that came with the purchase but it is always fun to put the history together as you look back. Any reason your ownership was so short?

It is the first Marcos that I had the pleasure to drive. (although I had owned 2 1800 models about a year earlier needing full restoration) The gentleman I purchased the car from had a collection of older cars and just handed me the keys to drive a couple of them. I drove a late 70s Maserati Merak just after driving the Marcos and it felt like I was in my granny's grocery getter compared to the Marcos! Here is my video I posted of driving the car....please excuse the poor sound quality but you can still hear the beautiful exhaust note.. > > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2u23mucVOfY&feature=related > > > --- In MarcosManiacs@yahoogroups.com, Meggsief@ wrote: > > > > > > Thanks Larry. > > > > > > > > Hal > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: larry meadows <lmeadowsw@> > > To: MarcosManiacs <MarcosManiacs@yahoogroups.com> > > Sent: Tue, Jan 10, 2012 7:20 pm > > Subject: Re: [MarcosManiacs] 1970 V6 FS in Eastern Canada > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hal, > > Gary moved back to the UK.
