Pam, if ( and I do mean if) we meet in 2099 I will be riding in the big black 1956 Cadillac Hearse (like the one I drove around the Bay Area in 1969). Watch for me. By the way, I attended the very first heshey meet with my Father. I remember it well.
You are spot on, Bert. These big, beautiful Classics, with a capital " C ", values have been sliding. The people who coveted these icons of the '20s and '30s are aging out.

Alas, even with the " bargain " prices they are still out of reach of my bank account, too. May be we will meet up at Amelia Island, 2099 in our funky old cars of a far, bygone era ..... Capturing these fine cars and sharing is as close as I can get. It is a wonderful way we can be a part of the hobby. Thanks for watching and commenting, Bert. Have a Happy and Healthy 2026.
That car was 200K in the 80’s. Nobody wants them anymore. Sad. I would have bought that car in another lifetime. Maybe in my next life. Thanks for sharing Pam.

The company was founded in 1959 by Jem Marsh and aerodynamicist Frank Costin, with the name Marcos coming from Marsh and Costin. Costin brought serious aircraft and racing design experience to the project, and that influence showed up immediately in the cars: low frontal area, light weight,…
