Hi guys. I recently finished my latest cardstock model which is my 1909 curved dash Oldsmobile that I built using mainly cardstock paper and other materials. Hope you like it.

That is a classic!! I saw one of these made using a 16 h.pk lawn mower engine. It looked like it would be a blast to drive around. It's hard to imagine this was a real car and used for every day use. Well done, and an exciting subject. The one below sold at auction for $42K, and traveled over multiple states.

I believe he scratch built his (nothing wrong with that). I have just located many line drawings. It wouldn't be easy to do, as there is the engine, etc. but just making the body wouldn't be hard. Only problem with that is when you flip it over, there's nothing there, and I find it difficult to make models like that. P.M. me Rhaven. " 
No, just videos of the actual car on YouTube, so good luck and looking forward to seeing your version of it!Is there (by chance) a template for it?
So does that mean you'll try your luck at making one?I believe he scratch built his (nothing wrong with that). I have just located many line drawings.
