Spex84 Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Thought I should post something regarding the '30 coupe 3D model I have been working on. Back in 2010-11 I modeled a '30 as a modification ("mod") for the video game Grand Theft Auto IV. It was a lot of fun, but after a while I realized the model was sitting around on my hard drive, effectively abandoned. I dragged it back out to try and convert it for 3D printing, after noticing that apparently the large-scale market lacks a '30 coupe option. During that process I discovered lots of things that needed tweaking. My skills are limited, but I've done my best to get 'er fixed up. The body is currently up on Shapeways in 1/8 and 1/16. My pockets aren't deep enough to order one myself, but maybe someone else will take the plunge. Comments and feedback are welcome
RAT-T Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 THE BODY LOOKS GREAT CHRIS. I SEE YOU HAVE A FEW PARTS FOR THE OLDS IN 1/16, WOULD YOU HAVE A BLOCK & HEADS AS WELL?

The Olds parts were originally meant to be 1/25 only, but I had a request for 1/16 scale--I think the guy who asked for them was planning to modify a Chevy block.

THANKS CHRIS, I'LL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THAT MOTOR. IF YOU NEED ANY DIMS, I HAVE QUITE A FEW FOR IT. ALSO, A 32 CHASSIS IN 1/16 WOULD BE A GREAT ADDITION FOR THAT COUPE BODY. ARE THOSE KELSEY HAYES ARTILLERY WHEELS ALSO KNOWN AS DIVCO OR MILK TRUCK WHEELS?

Ace-Garageguy Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Man oh man oh man. NICE work. I'll be buying, for sure.
daz3dd Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Chris Drysdale do you sell the 3d print file for the 30 coupe ?
