Wolfman’s Trike Of Terror


Recommended Posts

This is the third of a series of four vehicles made for the monster toy series from Burger King kids meals in the 90s. I did a Frankenstein’s Wagon first, Creature’s Surf Rod second, and am currently working on this guy.  I took a vintage MPC Tee Trike body and extra parts and cut the top off, then amended the sides a bit.  I also removed the floor board and moved the seat back all the way.  The engine will be replaced by a small blown one I believe might be from the Opel GT Kit. Body will be Metallic Brown and of course the figure will be totally repainted. Last pic is test fitting before painting.

As you can see I decided against the blown 6 cylinder and was able to salvage the original engine for the T Trike Kit.  Painted the block and transmission the same metallic brown.  The headers are from a 55 Chevy kit as alternate parts.
