HI !

  Here another project I been working on for a couple of years, now is the AVROCAR PROGRAM , not much people know that this program started by selling the ideal to create a flying saucer for the USAF and US ARMY  , when US military officials visited the AVRO CF-105 ARROW program in MALTON ONTARIO  , One of the main AVRO enginer 'Mr JOHN FROST' offer to US OFFCIAL to visit a secret test lab , where AVRO CANADA was working on VTOL project call Y1.. when they saw it the  US OFFICIAL came back with an offer to subsadize the program  , this project was call PROJECT 1794 SILVER BUG ..While working on the program , AVRO build a smaller version of the propose propulsion VIPER ENGINE , this version was call the AVROCAR     , If you like to view more pics just follow these links:

Very cool vehicles and nicely built too! I especially like the metallic ones, as they're not overly bright and seem to fit the look of "test" vehicles. What silvers did you use?
