TRIANGULA! 8th Scale Showcar! Progress 1-15-12

[Ira]

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.
