Description

Marcos is a small English car manufacturer founded in Luton in 1959 by Jem Marsh and Frank Costin. Marcos is, in fact, the combination of the first three letters of Marsh's surname with the first three of Costin's; the company remained in business (with ups and downs) until 2007.

It was born with the intention of producing sports cars with wooden chassis and fiberglass bodywork. The experience of Frank Costin (brother, among other things, of Mike Costin, co-founder of Cosworth) in the aeronautical sector was fundamental in the first years of Marcos' activity.

This Marcos GT 1600 is equipped with:
Black plates from Rome, a rarity for this model
Ford Cortina Lotus engine
Bodywork in very good condition
Sunroof
Dashboard and instrumentation in excellent condition
Restored seats
Door panels in good condition
Rims in good condition

The sleek lines and the racing setting make this sports coupé certainly interesting for those enthusiasts looking for originality and driving fun, with an eye always turned to the rarity of the vehicle.
