RE: [MarcosManiacs] Marcos Photo Cache

2015-06-02 by Phil Traxler

Good Morning John, I trust your knee has healed enough to visit Larry Meadows, he has given 

me invaluable help in getting the Marcos back on the road.

 

A Marcos update; I actually drove the car last Friday, Quite thrilling as the picture “says it all”

 

Yesterday:

 

I took the starter and generator to the rebuilding shop. I laid the starter on the countertop and the owner said “I just repaired one of those a month or so ago,

The guy called it his ‘Harry Potter’ car”. He didn’t know what it was.

 

I laid the generator down and he said: “I think I have one of those brand new” and he did $90.00 didn’t seem too bad. I’m still having the original rebuild

to go with the car when I sell it.

 

Small world,

 

Phil

​Phil.

I was down in Wimauma with Larry Meadows last week-end.  He is making fantastic progress with my Luton Gullwing.  I now believe it is the prototype and should have chassis number MONO 1008.  More about this anon. 

I  suggested that we try to make the Macon meeting!!!

Best wishes,

John

Thanks Larry, could not have done it without you.

 

I’ve been thinking about Macon since the 1st time you mentioned it.

I am proud of you, Phil,

Now, how about trying to motor down to Macon in October. We could show people that there realy are more than one Marcos in No. America.

Chris, (the orange one) is going to try to make it down from New Jersey.

Sure would be great to see three together at the same place.



 


Regards,
Larry

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to my fellow Marcos Maniacs!

 

If you've never seen these Marcos photos, there is a treasure trove of pictures at this internet site, "motorsnaps" :

I was very pleased to see a photo I'd never seen before of our Gullwing (chassis #M2006) on the racetrack this past summer.  A pleasant surprise!  It must be from an early qualifying session because the starting number has not been added yet:  <http://www.motorsnaps.com/v/Cars+M/Marcos/1962++++Marcos+Luton+Gullwing.jpg.html> http://www.motorsna ps.com/v/ Cars+M/Marcos/ 1962++++Marcos+ Luton+Gullwing. jpg.html

 

My apologies if this subject has already been posted on our mailing list, it's possible I may have missed it.

 

Have a Happy New Year!

 

Best Regards,

Andy
