Thanks Bob, me too!

Great Start!

TRIANGULA GOT PAINT!!! Started this project over 2 years ago...finally got it painted! The paint is Testors Diamond Dust on the top and Tamiya Mica Blue on the bottom. The body is going to dry in the closet for a few more days, then...

WOW!!! That looks Great so far James! I have a couple of suggestions if you don't mind. You might consider shortening the hood & front fenders about 1/4" to 1/2", and you might add some width to the rear fenders. I'm really looking forward to seeing more progress on this one!

Thanks for the kind words David! Also thank you for the painting suggestion, I have been thinking about Candy Apple Green or Red with flames. I am fitting in custom interior seats and door panels from Revell's '59 Chevy, they will be white & a second color.

Thanks for the suggestions Bob!

Thanks James! I would like to see it, any photos of Juhas Car?

WOW!!! That's Great James, Thanks! Can you post some photos of your '36 Ford Short Tracker?

This is my second Flying Car Model... they are Great Fun!

Thanks for the suggestions, Great Ideas!!!

I haven't decided on colors yet, any suggestions? Yes this will be finished in time for NNL West!

Here are the Dual Belt Drive Guards! This is how the power get to the rear wheels... There are two Swing Arms, one for each rear wheel. There are two Belt Drives, one for each rear wheel. Power goes from the engine to a transfer case to the Belt Drives. No Driveshaft! This allows the driver to sit lower in the Triangula!

Thanks Bob! I haven't decided on colors yet, any suggestions?

Thank you for the kind words Russell! Glad you like it.

I'm getting all of the parts together for the interior! The dashboard is from Monograms 12th scale '57 Chevy. I cut the bottom half off of it! The steering wheel is from Monograms 8th scale '95 Corvette. I cut the top half off of it! The control panel is cut from the Monogram 8th scale Camaro's dashboard. A second control panel from Monograms 12th scale Testarossa has already been fit into the interior.

I did the final fitting on the access covers today.

Looks GREAT so far!!!

Thanks Tim! My friend Ward made the LED set up fof me...

Thanks Eric!

I found some 8th scale Corvette Brakes in the parts box that will be perfect for Triangula! The brakes are one-sided, so I traced their shape on sheet plastic, to make backs for the brakes. The Front Brakes are visible from both sides so I made additional parts from sheet plastic for the Fronts. The Rear Brakes are one sided and don't need any more detail on the Rears. Here are the Brakes with all the pieces glued together. This set up will allow me to mount the Brakes right on the new wheel hub mounts. Now I need a little putty and primer...

Thanks Art!

Thanks Mike!

Thanks Glenn, Glad you like it!

Thanks Chris!

I have seen a 53 Studebaker, a 57 Corvette & a 63 Corvette, all as Flying Car Models...They were Great!!!
