Eric, th4 current owner of MTC would not have seen it.  I saw it when MTC was in Calif. I believe it was made in the UK. I think that this one was only a mock up and didn't run.

Jay, the address on the poster in the first post is the same as it is today in Florida.

Sam. :)

Yes. Ken Tipton who owned MTC moved from South Gate calif to Florida. The company was then sold twice.

I spoke to a guy by the name of Cliff there a year ago or so. He had to reference some stuff for me and mentioned that he had to go get the old price list that he had written down on a notepad back from the eighties. I'm thinkin that if he's been there that long he may be the one to ask about the V-engine.
