they both now run so time to respray, i gonna start on the green one. its now stripped and getting painted this sunday candy apple green

Good call...that might be a little big tho, but im sure Kris has some great ideas already..

 

[dadof2]

or another way is put a 140 in it and call it a THUMP140 I (as in thump 140 inspired)

 

[SIKKO_X2]

what sort of stuff are you going to do to it other than paint? any custom fabrication or engine work?

 

[Sneezy]

not to sure aye

im replacing handle bars, rims, exhaust and foot pegs not sure what else yet. just doing it slow.

paints coming hopefully this week or next. my mini truck is getting done the same clour so should be good.

not sure on what motor though. its only a 110 at the moment would love to put something else in there but at the moment im happy with the full auto haha

I didnt even know thump*140 passed before reading this thread.
thats 2 in the matter of months!

 

[bradisfun]

where have you been mate? theres been a few threads about it...
anyways, this looks like a bit of fun but try to get a semi 150/160 in it
