"As the first person to order a Marcos in September 1959 I suppose I am qualified to review the website established by Matteo Panini as the current owner of the Ex Jackie Stewart Marcos registered G 128.

This was the 3 rd car built and was originally purchased by Barry Filler who sponsored Jackie Stewart to race it.
This is a comprehensive site which covers the history of G 128 in considerable detail, but it does much more than that because it also fills in a great deal of the interesting background to the Marcos story from the very earliest days.
It is a great credit to Matteo Panini as a very well researched historical document and one which I refer to regularly."
