Dear all Marcos owners,

 

I`m in the process of rebuilding a 1970 Marcos which has been vandalised and
lots of the spareparts are missing and I cannot get hold of a workshop
manual

 

.         Can anybody please send me photographs how to bolt the bonnet to
the bracket on the front frame where it swivels

.         Also a photograph of the bonnet side catches and how it was build
into the bonnet 

.         From what car make and model was the door windows sourced

 

Any help will be highly appreciated

 

 

Kind Regards

 

Juan Gerrits

Juan,
I have the patterns for the plywood supports that glass into the nose bonnet If you need to replace them.
The windows are  unique and differ from each side. I can supply you with patterns for the glass which is 3/16" thick tempered. \
I have 1 side latch and can send you a pattern and location so you ( or a fiberglass work shop) can re fabricate the openings.
I will send you some photo's of the front attach points.
Regards,
Larry
