Recently acquired from over 40 years of continuous ownership, this Marauder has been meticulously restored using almost entirely factory-original parts. The paint presents beautifully over a rust-free, accident-free body. There is very little to fault, as the car remains exceptionally original, and the high level of care it has received over the years is immediately evident.
