Place a bid on a 1966 AMC Marlin used by Billy the Marlin during the early years of the Marlins impressive franchise history.  This midsize sport fastback sedan was actually used by the world-renowned mascot during the Marlins 1997 World Championship season.  The one-of-a-kind car was transformed into a convertible for all fans to see Billy as he cruised around during parades and on-field ceremonies at Dolphins Stadium.  All of the seats have been removed except for the driver’s side.  The body is the signature teal color of the Marlins baseball team.  It does need work to operate but is a great memory from early Marlins history.  This car comes with a certificate of authenticity that states it was used as the official car of the Florida Marlins baseball team.  The AMC Marlin model was produced for only three years (1965-1967) with just over 17,000 total units sold.       

Also included is a used and autographed Billy the Marlin jersey that he wore during a Florida Marlins game.

           
Specifications:  Two door and standard V-8 engine with automatic transmission.
