Fred barlow Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 70s or early 80s mk1 stock car from what iv seen, if you're on Facebook look up a group called vintage mardave buggies and cars there's a lot of knowledge on there. If you put up pics of the other 2 I may be able to id them iv got a few mardaves and a bit of knowledge of the cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev the Rev Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Nice cars , I used to have a few Mardaves - several Stock cars , Zakspeed Capri , Marauders,. Mini Stox Check out this site .

Fred barlow Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Yeah @Kev the Rev iv been on that page a few times it's got some good info, iv got hold of a few marauders that need restoring (if I can find the missing bits that ain't made any more) and that site had the manual for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev the Rev Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Hi Fred . Some of my models are on there . I restored 6 Marauders , no longer have them now . I do have MK1 main crown gears for sale if you need one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred barlow Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Hi @Kev the Rev, that's cool strange iv got 6 in a job lot to restore (4 mk1s and 2 mk2s) the best 2 mk1s are bound for the shelf (period restored) other 2 mk1s are going to be just runners and my mk2s I'm going to convert to electric with Anglia and escort shells , yeah I'd seen your post sadly that's the 1 part iv got for them all (mixed up chassis mark wise), I need to find engine's, silencers, clutches, spur gears, servo savers, axle joints (available from mardave still), a couple of tanks, axle's (that I'm looking at making modified versions as well as stock), spiked wheels and tyres and the mounts for the body and tank I've got enough bits to get 3 together as rollers and the other 3 statics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev the Rev Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) I know a guy who breaks Marauders , I'll post up a contact link and you can ask if he has the spares you need . I did have a lot of the parts you need , but it's all gone now . I had some aftermarket axles on one of my cars that hooked into the back of the wheels and didn't rely on the splines . I also made a bell crank design to incorporate a brake .You can still buy radio boxes and bodies / wings from Kamtec I'll get that link and post it here for you Edited February 4, 2021 by Kev the Rev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
