Introducing the Mini Motor Car

Check out the articles in the Technical Section
More information on the new loco in the 'Specials' section.

All bare chassis except the Tek-Nek conversion come standard with two undrilled coupler pockets using standard 1"x2" square tubing.  By popular demand we've added an unpowered version for all your 4-wheel rolling stock needs.  Minimum operational weight of all chassis is 65lbs to allow the suspension to operate properly and follow uneven track, excepting the Tek-Nek conversion which needs 30lbs.  Maximum chassis weight is 300lbs.  All chassis are custom made.  If you need a different length or wheelbase, contact us for a quote, many times it doesn't change the price!

I have received so many great photos of customer projects that I have split this page into separate pages for each style of chassis, you will find customer photos and more detailed descriptions under each style so you can see what would work best for your project.

The power chassis for the new locomotive will also be available as a separate item, and perhaps even with outside frame.  See the 'SPECIALS' page for more details on this upcoming option.

 

The Tek-Nek conversion chassis for the Tek-Nek Riding Thomas and other small riding toys.

 

 The basic power chassis for light speeders.

 

 The power chassis originally developed for the Mini Motor Car.  For light locomotives and powerful speeders.

 

 Unpowered 2 axle chassis for all your rolling stock needs.

 

 Basic handheld controller

 

 Full wiring harness with motor controller and MU capability.

I always stock everything I need to build everything that I list on the website, but very few things get built until they are ordered.  Because of this changes are rarely a problem and usually don't cost very much.  Contact us for a quote.

Customization is great, one customer wanted his MMC to look more speeder-like.

Don't forget a motor controller to power your design!  The Syren25 is very well suited to this application, having an operating voltage of 12 to 24vdc.
