I guess so.......... the engine had been shoe-horned into the engine bay (nearly). I think they were building it in conjunction with an existing Sportster owner who had expressed an interest in a diesel verion - Anrew Curtis - he is a member of the MOC, and has an M50 Sportster (purple) which was on Marlin's own stand (Stoneleigh?) a couple of years ago, with all its road dirt still on the bodywork.
I think the project was placed on the back burner due to the move of their factory (like a lot of other things..............!!)
