Bocar XP5 - a 3D print

[kensar]

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.

Very intersting racer, Ken ! It has this aggressive look on its "face".

[MeatMan]

I love it!

Thanks Helmut.  The front headlight slant and aggressive appearance is what captured my interest.

Thanks to everyone for the nice comments.

So, Ken.  You made your own kit and built it. Very impressed with your results as always. Beautiful race car.

Thanks for stopping by, Mark.  I got a 3D printer and learned how to use CAD software, so now I have a new, very powerful tool and skill.  This is the 5th original car model design I have done so far.

That's awesome. The thought of making your own kit is every modelers dream and now you have accomplished it. Can't wait to see your next creation.
