Vintage Style Car

Those are both really nice. Personally I like the full black rear fender version a little better.

I agree.

cami how about a 4 door version?

Once the coupe is done, it should be relatively easy to figure other versions.

Hi, Cami! You've obviously been busy with '57 Chevys and some other cars, but I couldn't help wondering if there's been any recent progress on your vintage style vehicles.

Oddly enough, Ellery Queen reminded me. That is, I checked out some DVDs of the old TV series "The Adventures of Ellery Queen" from our local library. As TV shows, they may not have been anything special. But this 1970s series was set in the post-war 1940s -- and I couldn't help wishing that I had a model of every car the programs showed. And so, the generic ideas of models and old cars brought my attention back to you.

Best regards.

I am glad you ask Yale. I was thinking about it last weekend and almost delayed the '57 Chevy project for a few days to work a little on the vintage style car. I was watching a cartoon with my 6 years old nephew and there was a generic 1940s style car that brought the idea of making one easy model of that kind, so I still think about the vintage, but I have to resist the temptation and finish the '57 and the website first. The '55 Chevy will be next, but I would like to spend a few days on the vintage before. Be sure that I will post any progress as soon as I make some of them.

The '57 Chevy should be completed and released within the next 2 weeks if everything fine and I will spend a few days to figure the chassis for the vintage. Here is a vintage model that should inspire me.

I've been trying to find some nice paper 30s-60s cars for quite a while & have come up pretty much empty.
I hope you are able to make some of these beauties a paper-reality.

Merry Xmas everyone.

Waiting as patiently as my terrior pups. Send the the design, we'll all make one!!

That's a funny bump for this thread as I am currently working on it these days. I expect to build a protoype this week if everything is right. It will be a little less ambitious than what I first had in mind though. Will post pics as soon as I can.
