Re: Marlin Rolls Royce???
Judging by the size of the louvres, if anything that's a modified Pilgrim.

1800TC, Unleaded ported head, stage 2 cam. Ford Type 9 gearbox, Dolomite Sprint rear axle fitted with MGF disc brakes.
Three core radiator, Renault Clio vented front discs.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
Loads of Marlin Reference can be found documents here or there.Comment

Re: Marlin Rolls Royce???
Shall we agree on Gazelle Merc parts bolted to a Pilgrim then?
The louvres and boot profile are definately Pilgrim but the bumpers, headlights and nose-cone are Merc Gazelle.
It's definately not a Marlin though.MOC member since 05/97

Re: Marlin Rolls Royce???
Why has it got to be a modified anything? I do not agree that anything is Pilgrim, and it is whatever the creator wants it to be. Any builder can use any car as a donor. We have a member who used a Dutton as his donor. Perhaps someone somewhere has used a Berlinetta to rebuild a Cortina!!

Re: Marlin Rolls Royce???
You may be right with the louvers but I think the windscreen is a belinetta not a pilgrim or Gazelle Merc.Comment

Re: Marlin Rolls Royce???
I'm with Danny. This car is Left hand drive, and most probably American, so its unlikely to be anything we have over here. And there is a Marlin regular road going car in the US, so it was probably the donor.
But I quite like the Merc.......!
