This is my 3D print rendition of the 1959 Bocar XP5. This car was developed by Bob Carnes of Colorado and was available as a kit car or a fully built vehicle which resulted in a lot of variation over the few cars built. Bob's shop burned down in the early sixties, ending production of all Bocar models. This one was powered by a Corvette engine and had a tube frame and fiberglass body. Paint used is Splash Paints, AK Interactive, and Tamiya paints.

My next project is the Bocar XP5. This was a racer made by Bob Carnes from Colorado in about 1959. He offered complete cars and kits for homebuilders. The XP5 was capable of almost 160 mph, which was quite fast for 1959. It was raced in Florida and came in second to a Jag D type. Bob made about 20 cars before his shop burned down, ending production of Bocars. It was powered by either a Corvette engine or a Pontiac engine. I am about to start printing, so I should be posting some building shots soon. This will be a quicky curbside model. Not all the parts are shown in the renderings above.
