First step, body design complete, next step finish up in 3d crafter, step after that, put into Railworks 3.
Here's a 1968 Plymouth GNX that I've been working on. And since I'm gaining some skill in making car models I'll try a 1964 Plymouth Fury later on, maybe.

Typo, yes it is indeed a GTX, Plymouth GTX. Here's a little more progress on it.

Got the car into 3D Crafter and have now started texturing it, so far I've finished texturing the tirest and am working on the front grill.

Here's another vehicle to add to the set, a 1956 Chevy Bel Air. As good of one as I can make.

Fixed the size of the bottom half of the car, it was hard to figure out how to do, but the Bel Air is now finally correct.

Just out of curiosity, what's your grid settings in 3DCrafter?

Unfortunately it's just a model, doesn't have a engine and doesn't have sound.
And by grid it's just of random size, it's been sized like that for a while, to actually what was a over sized locomotive, I probably should adjust it, but size really doesn't matter to me much unless it's too small.
But this will be included with a set of cars, and I must say, I am getting better at building cars, used to be I couldn't even build one that looked even half much like a car, this is actually for a 1950's route that I would like to build, the vehicles is just point one, then it is more houses and more buildings to fit in a 1950's scene, and to learn how to route build better.
Unfortunately, today I had to repair the brakes on my car so I didn't get much time to do any work on my models.
