Re: Mystery Marcos found

2003-07-01 by Don Lattimer

Just received another email from the Marconi Museum and the DeDion 
IRS car they have is serial #4043.

That confuses things a bit.  If Jem said that 33 were made with the 
DeDion then some in the first 50 or so had to have live rear axles.  
Starting serial # would probably be 4001.

Oh well, I'll keep digging for more info.
