Matra djet, Alpine A220, Marcos Mantis XP.

These would be VERY lovely to see one day.

As for the Aston Martin Bulldog, a wonderful car that it should have gone to production but it didn't due to cost. It looks fantastic Butch!

Noise -> from the 70 I though about the Aerovette, Maserati Boomerang, Lamborghini Bravo, Ferrari Rainbow, Mercedes C111.

Spectre -> The Matra Djet, well things are a bit complicated: I made 4 cars with high polycount and serious dashboards.
My heart beats for the MS610 which became a prototype because the car was gave up. The Idea was to put a lotus Twin-Cam engine in a Matra Jet (wider and longer wheelbase). The car ran a "Tour de Corse" and a "Criterium des Cevennes".

I feel less lonesome. Thank you guys.

I'm in mourning, I saw the last Jaguar.

Less lonesome, but still crazy?😉.....about cars I mean. I even collect the pic's of projects (like that DS) you showed. (Am I crazy too?)


Butch

When you're lonesome who care you're crazy ?

About datas I use this kind of datas.
My old meshe isn't enough accurate. There is a lot of work and I confess I always though this car looks like a beached whale, but many people asked for it.

"A beached whale" 😄

In Holland we call the DS a "pike". I admit I don't think it's pretty looking. But there's something about that car. The Matra Djet has also odd proportions i.m.o.  Ahhh well do what you like, I'm already happy to see a new release. Something to look forward to.

Oh wow what a beautiful car. I don't know it. You really pick the most special ones :D

Monteverdi Hai, was it ever for sale?

Italian designs with American engines. Don't know who designed this tho.

Peter Monteverdi bought most of his cars back to put them in his museum.

Nice car, and I'm happy to see doorlines.

It’s an esthete’s pleasure, not to owe your meshwork to someone else.

A serie of photos was shot next to the Fantaisy Jonction car seller. But it doesn't appear in the sold inventory.

Regarding the design, there are three versions.
- Peter Monteverdi said he designed the car.
- Some people affirm the design comes from Fissore.
- Finally Pietro Frua was supposed to be its designer.

Still need to add some chrome, to put the body a bit lower and to add dummies.

What can I say? Looks charmant again :)
I said hello, tough guy.

Look forward to it.

Again I see the tyreprofile is not correctly textured (white stripes). Personally I believe the OC part should be "no chrome", otherwise 'In race' the interior is to shiny.
