Made a little progress on the Triangula this week. I filled the exhaust outlet holes and made a recessed license plate housing for an 8th scale license plate.

Made some progress on the Tringula! Did alot of sanding and smoothing and the body is almost ready for the final primer coat. I also removed the intakes from AMT's Ford GT-90 and fit them into the Triangula body.

I modified the Tamiya 12th scale Testarossa front bulkhead & suspension to fit the Triangula. Looks like it will work just fine!

This is looking great Ira!!
I love the nice combination of curves and angles.
Any hint of a color at this point?

I am using the exhaust pipes from the Honda 750 on the TRIANGULA. I cut the cap from a Sharpie Marker in half and glued half to each side. This will create openings for the exhaust pipes to come from.

I wanted the side pipes to look like they are coming out of the side of the body, so I did some grinding... I ground out a groove for the side pipes with the Dremel Tool. Then I used a round file & sandpaper to shape it. Here is the pipe in place. Now for a little more primer!

Nice idea Ira. The pipes coming out of the body looks great. I like the use of the Sharpie marker!
Man, you are on a building roll! Maybe your momentum will inspire all of us to get it in gear.
