I got this friction Marlin with a smashed roof way back. I thought it would be a good parts car. Silly me....I had to build it into a custom. The inspiration was the Dodge Charger cantilever roof custom built on a similar body. The chassis has warped a bit, this is the first Marlin I have had with the warp. I wonder if it is because of the hard play it had? The way it is built, I could add a roof if I ever got one, but it has grown on me and I like it the way it is.
