Hello Dave et all...

The previous owner of your car was Dr steven Knee, of new mexico. He
actively raced the car in the 70's. Whenever he won a race (often!!)
many offers were made to buy the car. This car was the factory
prototype/mule for the Rover motor installation. All of his gearing
changes were made by changing tire sizes. I restored his Abarth Simca
(seen to the left of the 1st photo) and the Marcos was next. Then he had
a heart attack and died.That's how the car came up for sale. This was
the car that inspired me to seek a Marcos of my own.

Latest update on my car coming soon.
