My car is a 3 litre V6 Ford Essex engined, steel chassised Marcos, built at Bradford-Upon-Avon, Wiltshire in 1969 and one of the earliest steel chassised cars.

Many thanks to Konrad Wolosz (now resident in Switzerland) for this shot of CLE 100H just after it was sprayed red.
I've finally got around to including some other shots that Konrad took of CLE 100H when it was in his ownership.
Above : When CLE 100H was retrimmed we found lots of confetti behind the seats - This was Konrad's wedding and the car is covered in carnations!
This is what our friends and family did to the Marcos, when we used it as our going away car at our wedding.
