Update on the 38 Delehaye.

This will be my last post on this thread for at least 8 weeks. I have fractured my right wrist and unable to use it. The 57 Dodge and 58 Plymouth have been painted and chrome applied. The tail end assembly on the 315 hydra has been roughed in. The last pic is my wrist. I turned 80 y.o. last month.

Use Blender. highlight the line option to the left on the tool bar at the top. High light two opposing lines on each layer. Press the f key and a face connecting them will be mad. Continue until it's done. Set face orientation to make sure there aren't any reverse faces.

This is the one for the 59-61. I'll be creating one for the 383 in my 59 DeSoto Adventurer project. I couldn't say when.

I do the frames for my 3d printed cars and use a frame chart. The only 60's Chrysler product I have in full size is the 60 Dodge. Here's the frame chart.

Just a few things done on the Pontiac engine. Finished the oil pan and went to work on finishing the timing chain cover. Then I finished the body work on the 57 Dodge Custom royal D500 convertible and started painting it. Also , did the same on the 58 Plymouth Belevedere. Also did some to the trans.

Some more done on the Pontiac engine. Added the oil canister and mounting bracket. fixed the sides and started on the oil pan. Finding reference pic's for this engine is scarce. I have to get what ever I can find to use. I did a bit more on the hydro trans.

Updates for the 1938 Delehaye 135 MS and the Pontiac engine. I fixed the front corner, side and valve cover as pictured. Also, I started GM's controlled-coupling hydromatic transmission. It was produced from 1956 through 1964. Pontiac called it the Stratoflight in the begining and Super HydraMatic later. Olds called it the Jetaway and Cadilllac the 3215 Hydramatic. The file is still a work in progress.

As I may have mentioned before, I need certain engines for the car files I have. I'm missing a first gen Pontiac 55-60 and a Buick nail head 401. I've started on the Pontiac and this is what I have so far. The only part that is complete so far is the head. There aren't an abundance of reference pic's for this engine, so I had to really dig deep. The head was exceptionally difficult. But, I got it done.

This is my next car that Dan has started. It's the 1938 Delehaye MS coup by F & F.

It's right below my name. It's a Facebook page.

I have one that I created in 2017. There are people in this on this from that have 1 or more.There is a duel quad and single quad version. Follow my link below to view it.

The 36 Buick Century is done. The only thing I need to correct is the peek of the top at the center if the windshield. It's too far forward. One of the reasons I had Dan create this for me is that I couldn't create the back of the top. The bodies at this time were created by Fisher Body. This body on the Buick is the same body as the 35 LaSalle. The sceond to last 2 pic's show this. I can finally create what I started in September 2013. The 35 LaSalle coupe.

Timing chain cover, water pump and fuel pump added. It only need the 2 pulleys, a fan, a trans and some touch up and it's done.

I created the generator bracket on the passenger side exhaust manifold and created the exhaust manifold for the driver side. The oil filter was changed and the starter motor scaled.
