  1. Thank You Dr.! I used "The Detailer" Black Wash.
  2. Here are the Missing Frankenstien Construction Photos! I made a little progress on the Triangula this week. The Taillight, Rear Window & License Plate Openings have all been filled with sheet plastic. Two round holes have been cut in the Rear Window area for the Deep Frenched Taillights. I cut the bottom half from the Revell 12th Scale 1957 Chevy Dashboard. This leaves the top half for the Triangula. Now it's a perfect fit and there is plenty of legroom in this 8th scale interior. Finished filling in all the sections that were cut away from the original body. Next I have to cut out an area in the top of the body, to clear the 8th scale Honda 750-4 Cylinder Motorcycle Engine. Comments or Suggestions Welcome!
  3. We Have Power!!! Installed the engine and carbs! Engine Detailing Next!
  4. Yes Dr., I was thinking about "Floating" Mirror above the fog in San Francisco! I might support the car with a length of polished piano wire, above an aerial photo base...
  5. Thank You Dr., will do!
  6. MORE FINS!!! I traced the bottom opening shape onto sheeet plastic and cut it out to make an access hatch. Next I attached 4 "Triangle" Plastic Strips onto the new access hatch, leaving a little overhang on the ends... Here it is in place!

  11. Finished the Interior!!! I had to fit the dashboard into place, upside down while reaching through the side windows to apply 2 drops of Zap-A-Gap. After the glue dried I used electricians black tape to hold the front of the dash in place.
  12. VERTICAL THRUST!!! I cut out 3 holes in the bottom of the body for Vertical Thrusters. I'm using 24th scale wheels for the Thrusters, these are from Monograms Cherry Bomb.
  13. Got the Front Axle in Place! The front bulkhead, axle and suspension are from Monograms 12th scale Ferrari Testarossa.
  14. Real Nice Work!
