Hello Larry, I live in Northern California and I once owned a 1970 Marcos with VIN 3V5536. It is possible the 3 may have been an 8; I'd be curious to know if you happen to have the provenance on the car? Best Regards; Walt Smith Walton Smith

Thanks Larry, I gave mine to my Brother in 1979 who sold it sometime in the early 80s. It had the Volvo B30 straight 6 with the Borg Warner type 35 transmission. Maybe someday it will pop up at a car show here in Northern California.

Walt, Mine has the B-30 also. Origionaly had the BW automatic but I changed it over to the M410 4 speed with Overdrive. Also had a custom rear end with 3.05 to 1 gears built for it.

Stephen: Do you know if any of the owners in you area bought theirs from an Army Captain in 1974. It was a red 3 liter Volvo with a luggage rack. I think the buyer lived in Sausalito at that time. I was that Captain and have always wondered what happened to the car. Bill Black 3V5680

I know... I was at Tahoe and I wasn't using my computer and I was in a hurry and I couldn't think with the grandkids yelling for mr to "hurry up".... enough excuses. huh. Are you still doing "track days" with the Volvo club? I have made my Marcos into a dedicated Vintage race car and have been racing for a couple of seasons with CSRG, HMSA, General Racing, and Solvern. I was accepted to race at Monterey Reunion (used to be called the Monterey Historics) this year which is a ?big deal". You will have to come out and watch me sometime. I usually race at Infineon/Sears Point/Sonoma a couple of times each season and that wouldn't be too bad a drive for you.

Marcos Maniacs
I didn't mean to "bomb" the whole list with my previous post and reply to Mark Petrinovich. Since Stephen replied that he would like to see my racing schedule for the rest of this season I thought other Marcos owners might like to see it as well. I have listed the upcoming racing events that I plan on attending. Earlier in the season I raced at Sears Point (twice), Thunderhill (twice), and Portland. Due to scheduling problems I missed the race at Kent Washington on the weekend following Portland. There are currently 4 Marcos cars racing on the West Coast. Ken Rodenbush in Los Angeles, races a later model wooden chassis as a Marcos 1800, Gary Marshall in Seattle, races a Marcos 1800, an owner whose name I don't recall, races a Mini Marcos, and then me, and I race a 1800 GT. The Mini Marcos and I raced in the same race earlier in the year at Sonoma. We both finished in the top 10... how about that! If any of the Marcos Maniacs are at the races where I am racing please stop by the pits, introduce yourself and have a beverage.
Here is a link to Sports Car Digest where there is an article about the Portland Historics race... there is a picture of the Marcos on page 3 of that article. This link should take you directly to that page... http://www.sportscardigest.com/portland-historic-races-2013-report-and-photos/3/
So, here is the schedule of the remaining races I plan on attending this season, subject to "whims of the racing gods".

Hello: I believe I saw you race at the Coronado Festival of Speed last year. I really enjoyed watching and you did very well moving up thru the pack with great skill. The Red Mini Marcos ran also but I believe he was having engine problems. Hope to see your car at Coronado this year.

Robin,
This year stop by the pits in Coronado and say hello! Last year at Coronado, the Mini Marcos was "fresh" from the restoration shop and had a number of problems. Since then, the Mini Marcos has spent some time at the Huffaker shop in Sonoma and is running a lot better and will clearly be competitive.
Mike

Hello:
I believe I saw you race at the Coronado Festival of Speed last year.
I really enjoyed watching and you did very well moving up thru the
pack with great skill.
The Red Mini Marcos ran also but I believe he was having engine problems.Hope to see your car at Coronado this year.Robin GilmourSan Diego
