Are Stalkers street legal
in the US?
In order to comply with US federal
regulations, all Brunton Auto products are manufactured
as “kits.” The registration process varies
state-to-state, and even county-to-county, but typically
involves:
• Having the vehicle inspected by a state authority to insure road worthiness
and to verify the part numbers on the engine and chassis to insure that they
are not from a stolen vehicle, sometimes called a “VIN” (vehicle
identification number) inspection.
• Paperwork from the VIN inspection, bill of sale and MSO (manufacture
statement of origin, supplied by Brunton Auto) are turned into the local officials
for inspection.
• After the paper work comes back from the officials, the vehicle needs
to be taken back to a state official to have a state assigned VIN attached.
• The owner takes the paperwork to the DMV to complete the title and registration
process as with a conventional car registration process.
We highly recommend contacting your local DMV or state authorities
to confirm the registration laws. Please let us know if you have any
questions regarding this process or if there is anything we can do
to help verify the process in your area.

How long
will it take to build my stalker? Is it difficult?
Building a stalker is straightforward and,
providing you have some basic mechanical knowledge, requires
no special skills. The time taken to complete the car depends
on many factors such as experience, ability, and final quality.
Most people spend between 150-200 hours to complete. The chassis
is supplied fully welded with all crucial holes and mounting
locations already attached. Help can always be found on our Stalker

I want to
use my own type of Engine/transmission, can I make it work?
We feel the engines we offer
are the best choices for power, cost, and reliability.
We also recognize that there are many different
power plants available that people become accustomed
to. As long as an engine/transmission will physically
fit inside the frame, we are willing to make engine/transmission
mounts and headers for your engine. You must ship
the engine/transmission bolted together with any
external functions such as slave cylinders.

Will
I fit in a Stalker?
The Stalker is indeed a small vehicle.
However, you would be quite surprised see how comfortable
the fit is and how tall of a driver can fit. Many drivers
as tall as 6'4" can fit in a stalker. Fitment is largely
due to a person's body proportions. Two people the same
height can fit very differently inside a car due to the
waist down-waist up ratio. We can make a 1" longer
chassis and custom height rollbars are also available.
chassis can accommodate drivers up to 6’ 7” depending
on specification. Brunton Auto is not an importer or dealer
of kits, we are the manufacturer. We can do many custom
items to suit your needs.

I
really like the feel of the open road, is there side protection
available?
A couple of different side protection
style bars have been fitted to different chassis'.
We can accommodate side protection bars to fit your
goals. We due stress certain design characteristics
that would not leave one trapped in case of roll over.
Many cage/side protection bars on other 7 type cars
could leave you trapped!

How
well will my Stalker hold its value?

I use my Stalker on Track?
