Does anyone know if i can get bearings for a Midnight Pumpkin in the uk & if so where or would i have to get them from the US. I know they still produce the Pumpkin over there. Are there bearings for a current car that would work?

look in kendalboatsmans traderoom, there is an ad in there for a guy who supplies sets, have just ordered 3 sets and it only cost 27.50 inc p+p.

Cant go wrong!

Thats a class price thanks for the tip i'l drop him an email. I've gotta get my Pumpkin first though ha ha []

Would also recommend upgrading suspension for oil filled shocks, (see my lunchbox in showroom) definately improves handling, yet maintains incredibly high fun level.
Have you ordered it yet then? Cos I am planning on selling mine with radio gear, in the near future and that is ballraced with trinity monster power motor.

Si.

No i was pricing it up today to order in the coming months from tower Hobbies. I'm gonna get a blitzer beetle as well. Works out about £150 including shipping for the pair []

I'd be interested in yours though let me know a price [:)]

[gingerboy98]

Yeah, I have just ordered a blitzer beetle aswell (one of said bearing sets was for this)Can't wait for it to arrive.

As for the pumpkin, I'll let you know, its in good nick and has just had a respray, I have new stickers, new tyres and new chrome that I'm in the process of adding, to make it even more attractive to sell.

Definetly interested!!!

I'm just trying to get the funds together for my Blitzer Beetle. It was my first car when i was 12 but got nicked. Can't wait, it used to be so much fun going over speed bumps!!

Let me know if you have to pay any import charges. I've heard that i may have to pay import taxes or something. I'm sure it'l be worth it for a NIB though []

For my grasshopper (same bearing kit as pumpkin) I bought some blue bearings from teambluestar. Total less than $13 including shipping to Europe. they are now plenty of sellers on the bay that offer siñilar packages.
