The TAVENOR Story

As told by Raymond Nash aka the "madcarpenter", who designed, built and raced it.

The TAVENOR Story

This is the story of Tavenor

This site tells the story of the Tavenor, a prototype sports-racing car from the 1960s. The tale may turn out to be of interest if you are the lucky owner of a MARCOS car, or have an interest in the motor-racing scene of that era, or are just curious to learn what could then still be achieved by one person working alone to fulfil an ambition.

The provenance of the story is about as good as it gets – I designed, built and raced the car.

If you are not a Marcos enthusiast, past or present, and are viewing this epic tale by accident, I offer my condolences . If you are a Marcos enthusiast hopefully you will recognise the various references to Marcos literature and personalities.
