      Thanks Tim, I have been looking around aimlessly so far, but that will most likely change soon.

        Welcome Jim.
        Check out the book section here.
        http://sketchucation.com/shop/books

        If you can pony up a few bucks get Elisei's books on car modeling.

        Also, check this dude's stuff out:

        There is a video down in the middle somewhere where he models a car from scratch too.

            Well after looking around through some of the tutorials I've found, none seemed to suit me, I did however start messing around with the Curviloft and found it really useful in making car like forms. Here is my first car drawn on sketchUp, it's nothing major but it is a start.

            I have a larger pic @ Devinat Art (Need to figure out how links work here).

            BTW: If there is a more appropriate place to post this type of content, please let me know.

              Yeah, now that you are creating content, you can post your works to the "gallery" forum. Typically questions go into the "newbie" or "sketchup" forum. Once you have something to show, put it in the gallery. Its always ok to cross over a little, or ask a question in the gallery. But typically you'll get best responses by posting things in the pre-defined forums.

                        Wasn't sure if I should post it again in the gallery, but I will.

                          Thanks, glad you liked it.

                          As for ixlrlxi, I just watched some of his videos on You Tube. Not only are they good for seeing a car tut, but it's also good for anyone interested in seeing Fredo's plug-ins in action (search for 600v to see the videos on you tube).
