https://www.posetteforever.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=2618 ----------------------------------- Whazizname Sunday, 03 December 2006, 01:09 AM Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Hi; I'm looking for some old cars; specificly: a Lincoln Continental Mark III, Mark IV, or Mark V. My idea might also work if the car was a 1969- 1973 Cadillac Eldorado. Free would be best; but considering what I'm seeking, for pay will do too. Has anyone seen one? (: ----------------------------------- Tormie Sunday, 03 December 2006, 02:03 AM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- I'll search them :) ----------------------------------- Whazizname Sunday, 03 December 2006, 04:05 AM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Thanks Tormie! {FYI: the model does not need to be "Poserized"; any obj, 3ds, dxf, lwo will be usable.} (: ----------------------------------- manleystanley Sunday, 03 December 2006, 05:29 AM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Did you say cars? http://dmi.chez-alice.fr/models1.html Nice selection but no Lincolns or Cadillacs. Checked the rest of my resorces and all I could find was a Mercury, and a buick coupe. Might check here http://www.cg-cars.com/forum/forum.php ----------------------------------- Whazizname Sunday, 03 December 2006, 03:20 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Thanks Stanley. I'm familiar with the link {Lots of cool car models there...}. What type of Buick coupe? I spent most of my "free time" yesterday seaching cgcars; but no luck there either. {That forum is a very humbling experience, due to the emmense talents that post there} Someone on another forum mentioned that a person screenamed "dudley" would be the most likely creator of this type of car; but also said that they seemed to have disappeared from the community. (: ----------------------------------- manleystanley Sunday, 03 December 2006, 04:37 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- It looks like an late 70's Buicl LaSaber. I hope your program like 3ds more then Carrara, for some odd reason 3ds models always open blownup. here it is http://www.planit3d.com/source/meshes_files/autos/buick.htm I had to convert to a .obj to get this and lost the textures. ----------------------------------- Whazizname Sunday, 03 December 2006, 05:17 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Oh yes, I have that model. It is mis-named; I'm almost sure that is a Ford Gran Torino (mid to late '70s); that is the way I've named it in my archives. {My maternal Grandmother has always owned Buicks; and this is definately not one.} Thanks. :) (: ----------------------------------- Posy Sunday, 03 December 2006, 05:17 PM ----------------------------------- Don't mention it. ----------------------------------- Tormie Sunday, 03 December 2006, 05:48 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- I've found nothing :oops: , but I'm still searching... ----------------------------------- Whazizname Sunday, 03 December 2006, 09:21 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- I haven't found anything yet either... Someone pointed me to smcars.net; it is a "blueprints site". There are a lot of cars available there; but the majority are designed for use in games. I do not use the games that they are for; so I do not know how useful they are. There is a request posted there for a group of cars, including the ones I am seeking; so I will certainly return. ... the search continues. (: ----------------------------------- manleystanley Monday, 04 December 2006, 01:01 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Whazizname you are quite right. The Buick I'm thinking of has much rounder back fenders and more slope to the back window. ----------------------------------- manleystanley Wednesday, 13 December 2006, 04:11 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- I do beleave this is the Buick I waqs thinking of. http://modelsbank.3dm3.com/model436.htm It looks like an early 80's LaSaber; close to my 83 Regency, yes I like land yahts :thumb: . ----------------------------------- Whazizname Thursday, 14 December 2006, 01:58 AM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- :) That is a 1980s Chrysler product. A Dodge Diplomat, or Chrysler LeBaron, or ... I forget what the Plymouth version was called. {Though Grandma always had a Buick; I've always been a Mopar guy myself. "Mopar or No Car!"} (: ----------------------------------- Tormie Thursday, 14 December 2006, 06:58 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- :grin: BIG american cars ! ----------------------------------- Whazizname Thursday, 14 December 2006, 11:18 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- As Chrysler cars go, these were not so big. I thought about it a while, and then did a bit of resarch, and it seems that this model is a late 1970s Diplomat, or Le Baron. Here is a link that explains. It does not have a good picture of the exact model; but you'll get the idea. http://www.allpar.com/model/dodge-diplomat.html (: ----------------------------------- manleystanley Friday, 15 December 2006, 02:40 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- Sorry for my comfusion, when I open a 3ds in Carrara 5 I get an exploded version. :oops: This is the car I was thinking that was http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/5/web/149000-149999/149957_1.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.cardomain.com/ride/149957&h=188&w=250&sz=12&hl=en&start=2&tbnid=zSmgX_rsxe9RdM:&tbnh=83&tbnw=111&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbuick%2Blesabre%2B83%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26newwindow%3D1%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DX GM man myself, never could keep a chrysler product running; although one of the fastest cars I ever had was a 68 cuda, lost 2 trunk lids, they just fell off if you hit a dip too hard :wink: "BIG american cars" Yes nothing like driving an easychair. :thumb: If I had the money I would have a Peugeot 206 :dance: though. ----------------------------------- Tormie Friday, 15 December 2006, 04:07 PM Re: Search Assistance Requested ----------------------------------- I had the Peugeout 206 for 2 months, they gave it to me as a spare car because my new one is belated. I've also a Citroen Saxo that is the same body of the peugeot 206 (it's the same project with a different name) and the Saxo is more comfortable, However the "real" Peugeot 206 is the "rally" version :whistle: ... In the meantime they changed the Peugeot 206 first with a Toyota Yaris and today they gave me a PT Cruiser :grin: ...
