MotorMax Almost Marauder

[SID210SA]

So I was Christmas shopping for the kids and found this MotorMax 2007 Ford Crown Vic PI....Noticed it because it was silver and been looking for a car that I can try to work on to look like my Marauder.....Got it at WalMart for about $10.00.

So in this pic you can see it has the foglight holes and the bumper guard, which will be coming off, and have to find wheels that are close to a match. The whole thing comes apart with 4 screws and the hood opens to reveal the engine bay....not much of an engine...(actually there is no engine, only the top pieces.

The rear has the cut outs for the Dual Exhaust, which have to be added, and of course no Marauder debossed rear bumper.

The under carriage can be painted to match what we have

The Interior is the only problem with the center console and computer and gear shifter on the column.


Any one have any thought on how to proceed or where to get parts?

Use google to search for "model car parts" You'll get 54,000,000 hits!

Dude, you found an SB for 10 bucks?! Score!

[Vortex]

I saw that same car model at Wally World myself and was tempted but decided nah....

[SID210SA]

I figured it was worth a try and couldnt loose with it costing only 10 bucks.

[Blackened300a]

I would hit the local hobby stores and find a plastic kit that has parts close to what you need.

It could be worse! :)

Someone on here did a really nice mini-SB, even had a moonroof. Vortex? I don't remember who.

Ok...so check this out....I have taken the car apart now and was looking a little closer at the interior.....under the computer is the floor shift console!! Only one cup holder but the shift indicator is there...just need the actual shifter knob. And to my suprise it also has the guage pod!! I think I am gonna try to find a motor to put in it some where....I am sure I can find one.

My local CVS sells them for the same price and I saw the black one with the MM foglamp bumper and rear exhaust cutout. The only downside is that the black one has a tan interior so I may have to get two.
