Ferrari Modulo, Yes, it's me again.

[sprogs]

Well Michael.
First of all a mummy modeller and a daddy modeller get together, (Remember "Always practice safe modelling and use a printer ! AIDS (Awkward Interesting Detail Syndrome) is rife among us.)
Together, they make a sketch.
When the mummy modeller's father finds out they have been sketching together, he makes them get married because he has a shotgun.
At the ceremony their tabs are glued permanently together.
After nine months another Pinninfarina Ferrari Modulo is born (I bet you were wondering where little Ferraris came from !)
From then on, every night Mummy modeller stays at home putting fresh ink and card into the printer while daddy Modeller goes out Sketching with his mates.
But that's just life for you I guess.

Liz was kidding Mike. What she meant was that she really, REALLY likes it.

NO Elliot.
I really , REALLY, LOVE IT.
My hope is to make a correx velomobile based on the car.
There are two problems.
1/ My incompetence.
2/ scaling up any plans, pictures etc I can find.
3/ Did I say two ? There is nowhere to put your knees in the smooth shape of the original.
I may have to make my knees move sideways instead of up and down.

I stand corrected.

what kind of othere paper show cars are you in love with besides with my Ferrari Modulo from the 1970's and I hope your not going to build it and sell it on the internet because that's happing to everyone else online! and mine as well but we can't win them all! so I'm asking not to try not to sell my models because I have had this blog website up sooo looonngg! since 2006 now that I'm thinking about it leaving it up for a very long time just use it for your family only and friends if you like to see more of my concept cars just p.m. me that's all I'm saying! I'm glad you like it so much I didn't think my model would be popular! or Important to you!

your friend Michael!

Dear Michael
Do not be afraid of me selling on or even passing on your plans.
To me this would be a betrayal of trust.
I am, I fear, as incompetent at modelling as I've said, but for the last few years even though my builds have been terrible things to see it has kept my head together through some rather bad times. I treasure the people on this forum and their selfless generosity and one day hope to make something well enough to show it in the gallery.
All the best and thank you for your work.

Sorry, Michael, wandered off a bit and forgot your question.
It is difficult to answer because my interest is mainly in unusual, strange or concept transport, however powered.
If I had to name one vehicle that I love most I think it would be "Vanturian" by, I think, Carl Casper in the 70's.
I have the chassis for a four wheeled cargo bike that I think might just be modifiable to a human powered "sort of" version, but until I find out will give out on me I'm not taking on any more big projects.

Sorry again !
That last line doesn't even make sense to me !
It should have read:-
"Until I find out whether or not my sight will give out on me!
I hope that makes more sense.
