Anybody want a project??  1980's Marcos Mantula , never assembled.  Located 
in central California.  I believe the seller is Jason Len, who owns XKS 
Unlimited, a major Jaguar parts supplier.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6472&item=4540857128&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

Looks over-priced to me at $22k for the "buy it now" price.  Car has the IRS 
rear though..........

Wood chassis Marcos for sale on Ebay, 1970, RHD car. Ebay # 232623427349. Interesting how with so few cars in the USA, cars can be found for sale. How many Marcos cars are in the USA?

I counted 31 in no. America last year.

So breaking it down how many Mantulas with a 3.5 EFI?  I think I'm the only one.

There is a 3.9 Mantula convertible recently imported from the UK in Kelowna, BC.

I can probably get the info.  The 69 3 litre is owned by the brother of the 

Mantula owner and I believe is now in California.  My recollection is that it is yellow but I may be mistaken.  It was completely rebuilt following a huge accident at the now defunct Westwood track near Vancouver.  

 

Cheers

Thanks for the info.  Would you happen to know the year or serial number?  I have a 1969 Volvo 3L #3v5853 listed in Kelowna also.

I stand corrected.  It is a 1999 Mantaray Spyder and the VIN is SA9NMSXXWWK050227.  Double checking the S/N on the Volvo 3 litre mentioned earlier.

The current owner purchased it from Redline in the UK so if that is true it is certainly well travelled!

Thanks for the info John.  I believe that Mantaray belonged to Garry Diver in Jupiter Florida at one point. The serial number of the Volvo is 3V5853.

I can confirm that the Volvo engined car is the same one you identified in your register.  It is now in San Diego.
