My first attempt at a car, and the first car I ever owned. It was fourth or fifth hand when I bought it in 1970. It cost me a month's wages (about 50 quid). This is not the finished article, but it is finished as far as I'm concerned. It really started out as a doodle, and after a while I realised that it was taking shape rather well, so I ploughed on, but unfortunately all on one layer! Even in wireframe mode it was getting more and more difficult to make selections, so the interior of the car and the offside and rear windows are not completed.
Oh, and in case you should think I'm good at glass, I cheated on the 4 front lamps, and selected them from the original photo and pasted them into the drawing with some feathering. I'll have to study the glass effect thoroughly before attempting another car. But I learned a good deal in the process of doing this in about 20 hours of work.
Saludos,
Bob.
