Speaking of Super Marauders...
For those who don't know, the Super Marauder engine option was real and offered for the 1958 model year only and was available in ANY Mercury model. Only an estimated 100 Super Marauder powertrains were ordered and installed. Below are magazine articles from the period.

...canned audio track LOL! Still, a cool race with a Super Marauder engined '58 and column 3 speed according to the comments. Want to see that driver speed shifting the 'three on the tree'....Originally Posted by PHHHHTT
This is supposed to be the very same car.

I'm pretty sure they were in the mid to high 15 range. A clone with a 3-speed manual (not available) and gears with posi (not available) built for the pure stock drags ran very low 14s.

Only factory 406 powered Marauder, and earliest built Marauder documented to still exist.
