Marcos Maniacs

Hi,
i run a marcos website in germany under www.marcos-cc.de and search 
for my "owners site" some pics of cars and a short description (type, 
year, specials)

if you want to see your car at the site , feel free to sent me the 
pics

Greetings
Wolfgang

Wolfgang,
These are some interior shot of my 3 litre Volvo 1970 Marcos. I have stripped the body for repaint and will send pix after completing the paint work.
   Laurie, I dont know if this will help 'cause I have never seen the early 1800. If this dash will work I can mold and cover one for you. The origional seats are molded fiberglass which can be made lighter by cutting lightning holes in the glass befor covering, using a less dense foam filler and utilizing a light weight upholsery fabric instead of vinyl or leather. To dress the tunnel, if you aren't going to carpet, there are textured paint like the boat builders use for the inside of fiberglass boats.
Let me know if I can help.

PS: I did all of the interior work on this car and one other one. I can mold and cover door panel, seats and dash monels for the 1970 models.

Larry
Thank you for the information.
The 1800 dashboard has a centre console in the dash which houses 
four small instruments in a line across the top....fuel, amps, water 
temp and oil pressure. Underneath that is the radio and then cigar 
lighter etc. There are "cheeks" which flow down each side and 
eventually merge into the transmission tunnel. Within these cheeks 
are three switches either side, in a vertical line, for the lights 
etc. So it is quite different to the later deign of the 3 litre.
The seats are probably very similar though.
Thanks also for the tip on textured paint.
Regards
Laurie
