Well gang, after creating and trashing around 29 "cars", I finally got a somewhat decent body hood front and rear, top and glass windows, no doors, lights grill, wheel wells or bumpers yet.

--had one that looked fairly good.  However I created my thickness, but then I couldn't use my boolean substraction.  Had some problems with welds (if one is not careful one can weld hidden vertices (like those on the opposite side) which causes all the points to converge in the center and welded there-not good).  Why do I weld, because its the only way to align all intersecting points in one sweep (all x,y,z coordinates).

No wonder there is no Carrara tut on making Cars (that I can find) -  where does one start?
