I'm pretty new to the whole modelling thing still, so this is my rough-cut first attempt!
Built in Rhino, and I don't know that the .igs conversion works, so if you find weird stuff in the iges, please tell me.
I will render it with Flamingo NXT as soon as I can repopulate my materials library, which has mysteriously emptied itself. For now the attached ones are as good as I can get it.
Also my computer was too slow to model over the full model provided, so I cut out the engine, brakes, etc.

All of the above will be rectified in the next two days; I'm just putting this up for some initial comments. In particular, I'm not sure about the tail lights... I've provided good airflow to the radiators and the front brakes, and I will cut a channel so that vented air from the brakes would feed into the side cutout. The long line of the roof arches and the full rear is designed, along with the "double-bubble" roof, to evoke classic sporting cars of the '50s and '60s.
