Fantastic work hellnbak, I for one would be interested in downloading the Chevys
There's alot of stuff on the warehouse that could use some sort of tweeking to make them better, and you've done a great job with the GTO.

Anyone else notice the cop in the side view mirror in the next to last image.
Nice touch!

Didn't see the cop until you mentioned it. How about the Brown Recluse on the headlight?
At least one of the interiors has a Pontiac emblem on the steering wheel hub and the radio nearby says Pontiac.
Edit post to remove incorrect observation regarding model styles.

By the way, nice chrome trim work. Are these textures available for use in Sketchup?

Not sure what this means, the bottom two photos are of the 67 GTO I did.

Thanks. I took all of my textures from photos of actual cars, and other things. A lot of searching to find the right photos, and very tricky to project these just right, a lot of piecing and patching and editing and trial and error. But I'm getting better at it.

Ok, I was not paying attention to the previous posts indicating the GTO.
As for the edit: My memory was fuzzy about design features of 1957 Chevy. I thought that only the Impala had the chrome, and the BelAir was mostly smooth, but after researching, I found that there was no mention of Impala as a model for 1957. I only edited in case someone had already viewed the submit.

A few early shots of my '56 Sunliner, my first scratch-built model. Still a lot of work to be done, thinking about making a Crown Victoria version also. Building from scratch is a whole new ball game, but much more rewarding than fixing up somebody else's work.
