Re: MFP Vehicle Badges

If I wanted to order 2 sets would it be the single shipping charge or twice that? Going to go the Paypal route. Thinking one set magnetic and one set stickers.

Re: Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

I do remember seeing one when I was a kid that had been modded a bit and had a V8 shoved under the hood (yes it was black). They still kind of remind me of an older Escort on steroids.

Re: Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

Well that is true the XR4 is a rather bloated ugly kinda thing, it represents '80s cars quite well in that fashion. :lol:

Re: MFP Vehicle Badges

Are these still available? I want to order a couple sets for my project cars. How well do the magnetic ones stay on? Is there any worry about leaving them on while driving or are they for static display only?

Re: Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

Did the SVO handle better just because of the lighter engine upfront or was the suspension setup different? Alright so far a 3rd gen Camaro or Fox body Mustang are the easiest mentioned rigs to get that can be made similar. Any other older rigs that have a more similar look? What about 4 door Maveri...

Re: Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

Oh wow I had forgotten about the SVO Mustang completely. I didn't know they used the same engine as the XR4TI I thought it was different for some reason. Only problem with a Mustang would be convincing the girl friend on one, her brother died in one so that kinda of put a black mark on them for her....

Re: Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

That is another car I have thought of and there is actually a parts supplier for them here in Oregon somewhere. One of those with a 302 V8 under the hood and a 5 spd sure would be an interesting little rig. My biggest problem is again it is a rather squared off looking rig. I know there have been se...

Re: Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

I have of course thought of those as they are fairly plentiful around here I was just trying to think of something older that could fit the bill. Also I was trying to think of a Ford because my girl friend prefers those and she is helping with the build. I already have a Mopar and GM in the garage s...

Mad Max inspired GRM Challenge car?

Hey guys I think I remember seeing a car styled after the MFP pursuit cars in the Grassroots Motorsports Challenge awhile back and was wondering if it was someone on the board here? My girl friend has green lit me doing a project car for the challenge and I am thinking of doing something inspired by...
