Good evening, all.
I have been in touch with the feature writer, John Webber,of the article about TWO OF A KIND Marcos, in a discussion about the WALTER MITTY anual event in Atlanta in April.If we can get enough cars together as a group we can get a spot on a grassy hill along with other car clubs for a fun and race filled weekend. If anybody is interested, Let me know. If we get a rapid responce, John will try to get a blurb out as the sponser is MOTOR SPORT MAGAZINE which John is a part of.

Best Regards,
Larry

>This all only makes me wish I could set aside the time to get my Marcos on the road.  It arrived 7 years ago with undisclosed wood delamination where the front subframe mounts.  I spend day after day working on other peoples' classics while mine sit waiting for my attention - and I just barely have the time to keep my drivable cars on the road.
