I'm a retired architect with an interest in the Austin Healey 100 and have been so since I first set eyes on it as a young boy in the very early1950's and yes I am older than thee earliest 100 model. When I was working I did a lot of 3D computer modeling and I'm currently beginning work on a model of the 100 and it's proving quite challenging as the from panels contain some pretty complex compound curves. However, I've picked up a lot of detail from the images posted on this site today and
hopefully can show you a finished model of the 100 in the 'near' future. I also have an interest in vintage cars from the 1920's and have completed a few 3D models for my own pleasure. Here are a couple of renderings of a 1928 Mercedes SSK I did a while back

Nick - good to have you with us. I admire anyone who can work so well with computer graphics!

Is the second picture a drawing? or a photo of an actual model SSK?

Here's my favorite "classic" Mercedes-Benz. An advertising photo of the car with the LZ Hindenburg - and the "new German woman" of the Third Reich.
