On tricycle gear it would look as ugly as the Tri-Pacer.
LOL. I was just about to put money down on a Tripacer when Mr. Ed was presented to me. (Mark, with both of our airplanes, it was the owner that came to us.) My only reluctance to the Tripacer was the short wing. Now, I think the Tripacer with a full span Cub wing would make one excellent airplane....................

OK, so another possibility would be the Dave Blanton route (with an O-320 instead of the Ford V-6). The plans for his airplane include extensions to the Tri-Pacer wing. I don't know if his plans would work as a tri-gear. Though he starts with a Tri-Pacer fuselage, he lengthens it. That would really mess up the CG in relationship to the main gear. It couldn't qualify as LSA either.
I have plans for that one, too. But since I acquired them for free, that still leaves me about $30,000 short.
