Body Suggestions

[robt100]

They did capris in oz! Maybe only mk1's but still, itll do

(I'm talking the 60's-80's one here, not that ugly FWD convertable!)

Google is fun..

[T16]

That one is pretty horrid, even if it does have purpose ...

And I have suggested the Capri in another thread

[Hemily]

i got a couple suggestions myself as well, though i tend to have a strange taste in cars, so i'm not expecting much
but hey, at least i'm trying to help with suggestions!
and i'm guessing it's supposed to be derived from, or based on, and not a complete copy of the designs?

1.Alfa Romeo SZ
2.Ferrari GTO (1985)
3.Honda City Turbo II
4.Jeep Wrangler
5.Jaguar S-Type
6.Holden Commodore VL
7.Simca Rally
8.Talbot-Matra Rancho
9.Skoda Felicia Pickup Fun
10.Fiat Multipla (2005)
11.Fiat 600 Multipla (1960)

A generic 70's mid-engined supercar does sound fun.

agreed as does the logical extension to that fun idea the '80s MR Supercar



And even the '90s Supercar

(I know its just a Concept but the damn thing's styling is SOOOOOO '90s!)

A small city car chassis, buildable as a 2 seater smart car style up to a small 4 seater city car like a Mitsubishi i style. Both of these have the engine in the rear.



I've said chassis not body, because the size of car could be used for a lot, like hard top or convertible versions, Honda Beat or Smart Roadster.

Kinda surprised that no one has mentioned:

Lancia Delta Integrale (iconic hatch body to work in)
Lancia Stratos HF (who doesn't want a 70's mid-engine rally car?)

Hi guys. This is my first post here and here's a great collection of old cars and their blueprints. This guy is amazing.

Welcome aboard! I know Palat's site, he is my favourite artist. He has a great taste in cars and I like his style of modeling - it's worth to check out the wireframes of his works. No millions of polygons, he use only as much polys as necessary.
His art is one of the reasons why I applied for an Autodesk approved 3ds Max course.

[Marian87]

Thank you. I wish I had Palat's skill and patience. I use Google SketchUp for modeling, I didn't have enough patience to learn 3ds max on my own or enough money for a course.

I really like the Toyota 2000GT, it has some interesting styling.

[Stew2000]

I have the Ginetta G4 one of those.

I just love the lines of the 2000GT.. I prefer it even to Jaguars, Lambos, Alfas, Ferraris and anything of the Period.. or any period for that matter

Sadly you would pay as much for a 2000GT as a Ferrari, perhaps more on account of its rarity.. It'll always be a dream car of mine, but not a realistic one..

For that I'll have a 240/260/280Z

[Marian87]

Yeah, it is a very beautiful car indeed and also the Nissan Fairlady z is awesome.
The perfect combination would be to buy this http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2009/01/toyota-2000gt-replica-based-on-nissan.html. A 2000gt replica built on a 240z.
