That's my dream car, Paul!

And, NO...I'm NOT kidding!

I've only ever seen two of 'em in person. Last I checked, I think it could be squeezed into P/SA. The second one I saw was rotting in a field about ten miles from Central Michigan Dragway for sale for $1500. I almost had Denysenko tow it for me but I bailed on the deal and refurbished a house, instead. I'm an idiot.

By the way, (for everybody but Paul), we're talking about the second generation Marlin, not the '65-'66. The '67 is a completely different car; production numbers were less than 2500.
