All 1/8 Scale kits list for $135 plus shipping. I will sell for $75 each plus shipping.

The Gas Scale kit lists for $225 plus shipping. I will sell for $135 plus shipping.
 
Interested in a 146 kit. Shipping to 47250?

Also maybe a package deal of a 146 and a 158. Thanks

These were ordered as Nitro kits. However they can be built as FE. ML Boatworks did an Extreme kit that had a deeper tub for forward battery placement. That being said I have seen a number of FE scales ran rather well with the ESC forward and the batteries in the tub. So these kits would go either way in my opinion. They are not already glued. I just assembled one to show what they look like. The 146 is the pointy Lucero sponsons. The 158 is the radiused or rounded sponsons.

Shipping it looks like about $13 to any zip code domestic. Canada would be $31. The prices are such that I will not to a deal for a bundle except for the shipping. I will have to get pricing for a larger box for two kits.

The 158 GAS kit is SOLD pending funds.

I know Mike well .. the GP series boat kits are designed to initially for FE. That is what Mike is mainly into. I don't mean you have to modify the running surfaces or anything like that. But you do have to do some work to get a nitro engine placed correctly, at least in the GP series. Now I don't know about the scale boats.

I have had many of Mikes boats. They are very good, probably the best running wooden kits to be had.
