M.A.N.E Eclipse

Post by mikea96 »

Saw this parts car on ebay and thought it looked like something cool to build up but after some research looks like finding parts is next to impossible.

It's been said there were only 100 made, but between me and four people I know there are at least 6, I don't think I believe the ultra low production numbers stated.

He's just a fisherman. Every time someone talks about something on Facebook miraculously that item will pop up on eBay for an unrealistic price haha.

Yeah that's a crazy price for that one. That's how I figured out what this one was.

Anyone know who that seller is? I was hoping to work a deal with him on an item outside of evilBay. Thanks.

That is mine! After everyone I've talked to I'm not going to find missing pieces so I'm just going to move it on and maybe find a complete car.

I talked to Vectorsolid last night who I believe is Bob Stormer and he says he hasn't ever even seen any parts listed for these and only a couple of cars ever listed.

I asked Bob about some motors I'm looking for and he didn't have them in his collection. I asked vectorsolid and he came up with some of them. So far though getting to buy one has been a challenge.
