It's about 1:16 scale. I'm not sure how well it will build, but I can send the templates I have if you're interested. It's the first model I've designed, so it may be a little unpolished.

That's prety sweet! Oh, and Rick will build anything if it's related to racing :D

Off to a good start there. For a couple of suggestions, the nose section between the headlights appears to protude a little too much. Also the side is more of a curve without the break line. Not knowing enough about the design programs don't know how you would go about trying to smooth that out. Maybe someone here with more experience on the softwares could make some suggestions. Here's a photo of one of the cars from an angle that should show what I'm talking about.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try and fix that up on the next build. In the meantime, I'll post up a link to the current template for anyone interested.

Wow - not sure about beta-ing it - but I'd definitely be interested in the finished product. This is easily the best looking American car ever designed and one of the best looking cars in the world ever designed (damn Pininfarina was a god designing some of those Ferrari's).

Pretty cool. And coming along nicely.
