Hi Dark, if you don't ever see a P404, the next one is more difficult....

The Fiat 1500 Coupe Vignale, only build in Argentina, but here is a very popular Classic Coupe

Hi dbstreet
I very much admire your work ! Age wise we must be roughly from the same decade.You manage to create the Saloon racers from back then (let's say 50s and sixties) so very well. In those days general practice was: Buy a standard car with good handling and quick engine. Improve it within your technical and financiel means and race it. pretty basic but within margins affordable and racewise the best of fun with a lot of good battles on track. Your work is spot on. thanks for the wonderful stuff you're doing.
Looking forward to both great cars. GOOD

Cheers, Dan

Looks promising but is it not too wide ? I remember the 404 as a rather narrow car.

Yes, is a little wide, I don't use ruler or blueprints, only my "eyemeter", I will try to punt on a diet without screw it up

But remember is a P404 with lower suspension and no bumper, the real car looks wider in that conditions

Sorry, I will try to do better

Thanks for help

Hi Dan

Thanks for the compliments, I was born on April 1980,

I love the saloons touring car, specialy from 60's, with this cars I try to replicate the "AAAS Turismo Mejorado Historico", It is an actual racing series from my country with classic cars from the 60s.

I always try to do my best with vintage tools, I still use Zmodeler2, Corel Draw 11, and also Excel (especially for gauges), so Historic cars.....Historic tools

Thanks again

Cheers

Diego

Excellent job my dear Diego. This FIAT 1500 Coupé's shape reminds me the Lancia Fulvia HF 1600.

Wonderful

This will be a nice compensation for the fact that - as it looks like - my online racing community will stop operating for GTL
at the end of the year. So back to offline activities - as it started back in 2006.

Love these cars.

Hi

I need to ask you a question...does anyone have an idea or know if it is possible to emulate this meter in the GTR2?

FIAT 1500 Berlina - WIP - Page 2 Regula10

The Stopwatch, I know it is possible, but the Clock and the odometer, are they possible in GTR2?

I would like to add the possibility of going further and doing Regularity Rally races.

Thanks, have a good weekend
