A stunning looking wooden chassied 1600 twin cam has hit the market.

Did Marcos ever make them with this engine? I remember one being for sale last year. A bit of Googling found this

Looks like we missed a bargain!

It looks to be the very same car, as it has the same throttle cable bracket, blue ignition leads, Dellorto carbs...

I'm not 100% certain but it looks like it's got the same registration.

This is my car and it same car you saw a couple of years ago,since then it has had a complete body rebuild and interior retrim,it has also had new glass, we decided to leave the twincam as it was installed in 1972,the car originally started life as a standard 1600 crossflow,it has been refinished to the highest standard and is only forsale as I have recently purchased a very rare Triumph engine 1972 Marcos that is presently being restored to the same standard and original specification

I think you've got great taste in cars! Is this the one you've just bought?



I would have been interested in it myself but I bought a 1971 TVR 2500 last year. Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to have one of each but for now I'm happy with the TVR.

It must be painful letting the twin cam go.
