Thanks for the very interesting photo, Dave.  It appears to be 1963-vintage 
with Fastback chassis from the #3000 number range being build at the old 
Royal Enfield Motorcycle Factory at Greenland Mills (Bradford-on-Avon).

Where did you find this photograph???

Klaus (Tweddell) & Maarten (Krikken), can you precisely identify any of 
these cars by serial number?

Best Regards to All,
Andy

Re: [MarcosManiacs] 1960's Factory Photo

Thank you, Dave.   The BBC video is excellent!  I love that quote from the 
1960's interviewer, "Mr. Marsh, now... wood and fiberglass, these are most 
unusual materials...." :-)

Great to see the pre-crossflow motors and fastback construction as well as a 
brief glimpse of the 1967 Le Mans Mini Marcos (UK registration HHU 34D).

Cheers,
Andy
