Marcos Maniacs

Yes,
   I wonder if everyone who currently has a Marcos were to order the build
sheet, just how much more we could have? It's pretty funny to read that Jem
Marsh was offering the head of Kar Kraft, Marcos merchandise such as cuff
links, pens, notepads, and the like to try and generate more interest in Kar
Kraft (really Ford USA) becoming the east/central US importer. But the guy
was pretty annoyed that my car was a bad seed from the beginning and just
wanted the car to be right. My next step is to try and research this from
the Kar Kraft angle to see if they have additional information.
Marcos seemed to be on the verge of greatness toward the end of the '60's,
but couldn't quite pull it off for a variety of reasons. Fitting a familiar
US Ford drivetrain that had already met emissions standards to the beautiful
body could have changed their fortunes forever - much like it did with the
Pantera.

Hi Dan,
Thanks for posting this fascinating info!!!
I remember seeing Prestige Imports mentioned in one of the articles 
in the Brooklands Marcos book, but had no idea that all that was 
going on behind the scenes.
Great stuff!!! Now, I have to figure out how to roll that into the 
web-site!
