While i own since 12 years a 1972 Corvette Stingray LT-1, i wanted to have one as a 3D-Model. That's why i'm looking for a 1969 to 1972 model or 1973 to 1979 which i can convert to the one i persnally have. Hopefully someone can give me the right direction, i know a 1979 was anywhere, because i have seen some pictures with it. If the creator of the original-mesh gives the alloudness to post the converted mesh i will do it. Please, please help. SHARKEY

Hello, I'm not sure what year these two Vettes are but I found them on one of my backup CDs. They are is Lightwave format and I have no idea where they came from. I'm in the process of converting the convertible into a Poser character. Slow process as the mesh had a LOT of holes in it. Like I said, I don't know where they came from so I'm not sure if I can distribute them on the net or to you. If anyone recognizes them, let me know who did em so I can contact them. Later, hdrider
No good deed goes unpunished ...

Hey folks You are great, thanks alot for your help. To Hrider: this are 1964 to 1967 Stingrays, if you convert them to a really Duntov 1967 Mako Shark MK-II then you have a eyecatcher. I search for a pic on the net, and place it here, if you like vette's, you will like this car. If you need some general information on vette's, let me know i have a lot of books, also catalogues in which details where shown. Thanks David and Wizzard for the links. I will grab them and convert to a 1972. With the 1979 it would be easy to do it. Thanks again. SHARKEY

Above is a picture of it. And heres the full picture gallery: As you see it would need a lot of work to convert the coupe, but it's a really eyecatcher. SHARKEY

Hey Sharkey, that's probably the nicest 'Vette I've ever seen (the picture of yours, that is)!!!! Krel

Hello Krel This isn't a picture of my vette, i would be happy to own this.(I think there where only two cars build) I also think it's the nicest vette who was ever build by GM. It's the 1965 Mako Shark MK-II Experimental-car. That was the base for the 1968-1970 vette-bodys. SHARKEY
