Making the Toyota Previa mid engine van into a Ferrari SUV, photoshop idea.

They call it Daily Motion, but I can't get the thing to play. I can scrub the timeline, though; but I can't tell if it's a series of still pictures as it appears.

Everything appears to happen between 14 and 16 seconds. If you expand that, lose the cardboard people, bar and stripper stage, then it will demonstrate what you want to do much better.

And the still pictures? Do you know what 'greebling' is? Too much of that.

Aligning the door cut-line at the B-pillar is a good strategy. Are you going to retain the slider side door, or have any doors in back? You can graft the Prius window into the Previa door in front. Have a look at the Ring brother's wide-body Mustang.

I want to have a nice looking car to attract beautiful females and also to make a money making business out of selling kit car designs.

We all want that! What model file types are you merging? OBJ, 3DS? What program?

Cd -- I remember the Karmann Ghia thread. Good times. But I hadn't seen the Which mass produced car is closest to a teardrop shape ? thread from 2008-10. Thanks for that. When Arcimoto ships the SRK with my number on it, I want full wheel pants, smooth nose and full boat tail in 30s style hammered aluminum. Then that will be it.

it.

YouTube wasnt accepting my songs... but maybe your flash needs updating or you could try open it in another browser app.
I never learned how to model, so I just merge and bend designs together in Sketchup.

I would like to keep easy access to the back seats so hopefully the slider door will work out okay with an added full body kit. I see what you mean with that Mustang.

I made another design change... but I havent properly sized out the true dimensions of the canopy and interior space needed for the occupants.

I have one browser that has Flash™ installed for watching videos. Too bad Steve Jobs died before Flash.

You're Okay. You either knew about or found the Ring brothers without a link.

How much visibility would that have? Would a shorter driver be able to see over the steering wheel?

[freebeard]

More importantly, would a short driver be seen in it?

[Arashi]

Probably not

A Google image search brings it right up!

I had chopped down a few inches in the front of the Previa for this reason... but not on the sides... so a short person would either need a higher seat (or pillows?) and extended pedals.
The concept in the fusion here is lower so its roof height looks specially low... I'll have to properly measure seats, occupant seating height and cabin roof space next time.

Looks like the roof is too low... thats me sitting between the seats, on the floor above the engine.
