          Well, they will be, once I upload them. Just gotta do a few things to them first, some need lugnuts, center cap work, some texture tweaking, things like that. Actually I'll try to get to that tonight if I can.

              Couple shots of my 56 Chevy, just sorta pieced together for the photos -- bumpers from my 56 Ford, interior from my 57 Chevy, grill is not modeled, just a texture on a face, etc, etc. Still needs a lot of work, but I'm gonna take my time with this one, cause this, IMHO, is one of the finest hunks of steel Detroit ever turned out. I love this car.

              Great work, especially this one (56). I took many a vacation (camping with the homemade rooftop carrier)in one. Ours was two tone, white and green. She got stolen, packed with all sorts of camping gear. My dad was heartbroken to say the least.

              It would be fun to give him one for his 80th birthday.

              Thanks for sharing

                That's rough. Yeah, it would be great to replace it for your Dad, although the replacement cost of this particular car has gone up just a tad over the years πŸ˜†

                  I think I just found someone who doesn't really need a rendering application 😲
                  Can I sell those models, Steve? I need to upgrade my PC. Please let me know where and how to sell them too πŸ˜†

                    I don't think Steve spotted his model in the latest CatchUp.

                    Sssshhhhhh....don't tell him

                      Sure, go on and sell them. I hear Ebay is a pretty good place. Enjoy your new 'puter 😎

                      Saw it there yesterday, really surprised me. Like the astronaut's wives were trained to say "I'm just happy, proud, and honored" πŸ˜†

                        I am new to the group but maybe you can help me. We are currently working on an artist's colony in the Boston area and the centerpiece is going to be a 1958 Edsel convertible. It is going to be Steampunked out but I am looking for a "stock" model of one in Sketchup to play with. Do you have one or any idea where I can find one? Thanks in advance.

                          Hi Mark
                          Welcome to SketchUcation. You'll find a lot of great information here, and a lot of people willing to help you out any way they can.
                          As far as the 58 Edsel, sorry, it's on my list of classics that I want to do, but I have not gotten around to doing anything with it yet. And there's nothing in the Warehouse either (of course if there was I wouldn't be interested in doing my own, don't see any point to duplicating someone else's work).
                          Don't know where you could find one, I would suggest you Google it and maybe you can come up with something that might fit your needs.
                          Have a good one
                          Steve

                                      Here too: awesome job on the great variety on wheels and even more respect that you share it all πŸ‘

                                      Did you make the wheels as dynamic components so you can easily modify the with/height?

                                      I'm also stunned by your texturing qualities.
                                      Do you use special UV-/texture plugins for this or just all nstandard SU-tools?

                                      Must admit that you inspire me in car design and diversity 😎
