1965 Indianapolis 500 : The winner Jim Clark in Lotus-Ford 38 followed closely by AJ. Foyt and Parnelli Jones during early laps of the race.

Jim Clark still led at the halfway point, and would not relinquish the lead for the remainder of the race. Early contender A. J. Foyt dropped out after 115 laps with a broken gearbox.

The lone accident of the day involved Bud Tingelstad, who lost a wheel and spun into the outside wall in turn three.

Scotland's Jim Clark became the first non-American winner of the Indianapolis 500 since 1920. Clark led three times for a total of 190 laps. Only eleven cars were running at the finish. Second place Parnelli Jones ran out of fuel on the final lap, and pushed his car back to the pits.

Lotus was successful at Indianapolis with the Lotus 29, almost winning the 500 at its first attempt in 1963 with Clark at the wheel. The race marked the beginning of the end for the old front-engined Indianapolis roadsters. Clark was leading when he retired from the 1964 event with suspension failure, but in 1965, he won the biggest prize in US racing driving his Lotus 38 and winning by a lap; it was the first mid-engined car to win the Indianapolis 500.

In 1939, Ford Motor Company established a separate automobile creation within their empire and called it Mercury. At first, their intent was to build an automobile that a little bit above the Ford in class but not quite a luxury vehicle. What they came up with was the Mercury Marauder.

By the time the 1960s rolled around, the United States was wrapped up in race car driving, the new national past time. Mercury fell in line and provided the public with what they were looking for - fantastic stock cars which gave a great race. Everyone wanted to drive a Mercury stock car. World renowned Parnelli Jones got behind the wheel himself and gave Mercury a spin. In 1963 alone, the Mercury Marauder, the new stock car by Ford's Mercury company, won no less than eight stock car titles and racing awards. Eight! In one year! Mercury was on a roll.

Michael Savage New Canaan

Never satisfied with success, Mercury decided to top itself. Less than a year after sweeping the race car driving awards, Mercury replaced the engine in the Marauder with an engine that boasted 410 horsepower. Now, the Mercury Marauder was unstoppable.

Today, Mercury continues to lure customers with a muscle-car design. In 2003, Mercury decided to create a Marauder based on their popular Grand Marquis. With a stronger frame, better suspension, improved brakes and steering, the new Mercury Marauder is more attractive and drives better than ever before. Special attention has been paid to the interior, with large bucket seats, large console, cupholders and a floor shifter.

And there is a new and improved engine, a V-8, 302 horsepower. This is the type of power and push that is expected with a traditional muscle car. No one can disagree that the Marauder is a thrill to drive! Like many of its predecessors, the Mercury Marauder is a distinctive car that offers a unique driving experience.
