Hi everyone,
I've done a search on the net but I've not found out much so I wondering if anyone here could help me.
It's probably a long shot but I'm after a 3D model (to be used in Poser or Vue) of a 1960's F1 car, preferably from the 1967 season. I'm mainly looking for the Eagle-Weslake T1G or the Lotus 49, but any from this era will do fine. Modern F1 cars are an amazing piece of machinery but these cars are true class!
Eagle-Weslake T1G:
Lotus 49:
I have a project in mind so anything close to these would be great.
Many thanks if anyone can help.

angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi

Thanks alot mrsparky & Acadia!
From a link at 'dmi.chez-alice.fr' it took me to the '3dstudio.com' which has loads of great sports cars, pricey, but they look really good quality. Unfortunately there weren't any of the ones I'm after.
I'll keep looking, thanks again.

Hi,
Its not an Eagle or Lotus but heres a link to a free 1965 Honda Ra272. It comes in pieces so you need to put it together in a modeling app. I got the bike models and used POVray (I think) to assemble them.

G'Day stormy!!here is another high quality site, but the prices seem ok-ish!
there are 800+ cars so there may be one you like there.

Thanks alot sekhet. The 1965 cars are basically smaller versions of the '67 ones so this will do great!! I'll download it & figure out how to put it together. Thanks again.
Vince - Thanks for the link mate, I'll check it out.
