Just bought a factory built (1990) MB Marlene on Hagerty auction last week. I ordered a manual from MGMagicClassicMotorParts.com at the recommendation of another club member. It is due in Wednesday. I’ll let you know if it is any good.
MB Marlene with 302 V8, automatic, A/C, Mustang II front suspension. Engine was professionally upgraded by former owner with Ford Racing heads, roller cam, intake, headers, and Holly fuel injection. A/C hasn’t worked for 20 years, and I’m having a shop dig into it. Cruise control also is not operational. Runs and looks great!
I’m now trying to figure out a solution to severe wind buffeting in the cockpit over 50 mph, as I would like to drive it to some meets and rallies. I hate to put the top up, but I may have no choice.
