That is awesome. How did you acquire that?
I used to watch that show! That's a neat prop to have! Thanks for sharing it.
That is a really great piece, looks like it's in great shape too!
I know someone who is going to love this!
Nice! Calling member The Mantis... peep... peep...
What a seriously cool acquisition.
Would you mind posting a few interior pics?

MCM, thanks for sharing!
What a great collector's item.![]()
Don't we have member who goes by The Mantis.
He should see this.
MCM you did a fine job of restoring the Mantis prop car. It is indeed a authentic screen used prop and is one of one. I had it for a long spell of time and purchased it direct from a prop wharehouse in Vancouver, BC after it was in a Tim Allen Xmas movie filmed here., also the Mantis show was filmed here to save $$ after being filmed in LA. It was painted red when I got it. There is much more to the story as to why the back end was sliced off etc and there are more Mantis props still at that prop house..last I checked.
Good thing I took molds off it before I let it go on ebay.![]()
There's a screen used suit and helmet for sale right now on screenused.com, jump quick and finish that display!
Awesome acquisition! It looks great.
