60's and 70's cars and trucks.

[jpetersjr]

Yes, building auto's are quite difficult, it took me a long time to learn how to build cars.


Although, the rest of the cars I'm building will be coming with the freeware Riverside Lines route, including a 55 Chevrolet Bel Air as well that I built.

[jpetersjr]

What's the 60's, or the 70's without any 1960's trucks. So here's the first progress shot of the first truck for the pack.

What we have here is the start of a 1966 Chevrolet C10 Longbed truck. I'll also do the Shortbed version as well by the way.

So far the truck has been extremely difficult to build, but I'll get it done.

[jpetersjr]

Well, the truck is slowly coming together, got the windows in, now to do the doors and then the other parts and the other side. Then I'll start painting it.

More progress on the 1966 Chevrolet C-10 Truck, just about ready to start painting the body and then do the rest of the parts of the truck, and then try it in the sim.

Also when I build my 1960's vehicles I listed to 60's music while building them.

Some more work on the model, been painting it all morning. It's made to look like it just came out of the shop brand new in 1966.

Also years ago my grandpa used to have one of these, never got to ride in it though because it was before my time.

[jpetersjr]

Two more versions of the trucks finished and in the sim today, more coming soon.

I think next I'll try to do a 1966 Dodge Charger for the sim, and then a 1968 Dodge Charger later.

Also, what do you all think of these vehicles, I'd love to hear your feedback about what you think of these and what you'd like to see done later to go into this pack as well. My biggest reason for doing the vehicles is to slowly fill in the spaces of needed street vehicles and just plain vehicles of all sorts from the classic muscle car era.

[jpetersjr]

Two new versions of the truck for today.

1966 Chevrolet C10 Truck V5 & V6.jpg

Another version of the truck now finished and in the sim.

As well, the complete set of 1960's vehicles how it stands at the moment.

Many more vehicles to come real soon before another release of the pack.

You're building quite the fleet there, JP! I think they look great. I like the '66 C10 pickup, I had a "62, big difference was the headlight bezels, the rest is the same. You got it spot on.

[jpetersjr]

My model in RW.

Here's what to expect in the next update coming up in a couple months.

I want to do a 1965 Ford Mustang GT for the pack and a 1969 Pontiac GTO. Also I'll be doing a 1968 Dodge Charger as well and most likely a 1967 Ford F100.




...Cheers...
