ORIGINAL: freemurray

Skulldoctor, I found someone that has one in stock for 300! It is the same place I got my MT from. They only had one and that was a week ago. He told me it produced 8hp but everyone is saying no!


I hate to rain on the parade, but the person who told you the sikk engines produce 8 HP was blatantly lying.

You can find some more accurate horsepower numbers here:

Status: offline 		well, going to paint the body today, The guy who paints all my real cars is going to spray it for me, i am going to black out the tail, and headlights and the windows, as i am not going to pay $67 for the decal kit. So if anyone knows of someone who can reproduce decals, get them on the horn, i'd like to talk to them.

Status: offline 		Unless you are looking to reproduce the "FG" Red/Silver MT I would not bother with the sticker sheet (and yes these are stickers) that go on the outside of the body. You can find all sorts of COOL sets at your LHS. Another interesting way to customize your top is to use the Temp Tatoo's- they go on the inside of the body - you then paint over them. Lots of folks in the painting forum's are using and the look is very slick.

Status: offline 		i would just like the taillights, and headlight decals, as they are specific this body, i can do with out the rest of the crap! Ammdrew, not according to one of your dealers, but i'm not going to get into that, i'll wait till the price bottoms out, which i'm sure won't be to long.

I wouldn't envy the man with the most toys - he has no time to play with them.

Status: offline 		I agree. All I really wanted was the headlights and taillights from the sticker sheet, but it just costs too much. So I decided to install real LED headlights and tailights for the same money.

(Actually, I can get two light kits for a few bucks more)
