Looks really good in black!
It will look even better with the wing and tires!
It's actually dark blue that appears black on this pic.
Thanks anyway B!

That looks killer in black,man!
Would anyone with a Triumph be willing to take a tracing of the upper deck for me,so I can cut one out?

I'll do it, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow.
Parts have not been shipped yet. They're wrapped up and will be shipped also tomorrow.

I don't know if I'll follow the original shape but hole locations would be usefull when I finally get back to the project.

Am I right thinking that the Triumph is,or was,the only production 2WD buggy with a dual deck graphite chassis?
Hmmm...There was the Ultima Pro,but that used alloy chassis'.

ultima pro-xl, traxxas TCP (TRX3) and there's more from smaller local companies like mardave etc.
The triumph does have some other real nice feautures: adjustable kick-up and adjustable rear toe-in. Long arms with very narrow bulkhead. Peg-slipper which is like a prelude to the dual-pad slippers. Medium length front shocks.

Did you get a tracing elsewhere, or should I scan it and mail you tomorrow?

Hey...
I've got one of those too!
The Triumph trans' work great in my Ultima stuff!
Those medium length FT shocks are tough to find..
I sold off most of my remaining Triumph stuff to a member on here awhile back..

I dig your Triumph, Dig!
It's that rocket powered build of yours, right?
Brendan: Did you find a motor guard? I might have one..
