A Classic car from approx. 40×18x13 cm. Made out of mainly Yelloy Poplar. Tyres are ebonized Oak. Chairs are a Zebrano look a like. Spokes made out of Hornbeam. Some small parts are from Merbau. The lights are from Beech dowels.
Also this time I made a lot of pictures from the build process and soon I will make a blog about it.
And again LBD made a video exploded pictures from it. When you like to make this one yourself look at https://dutchypatterns.com/pattern/the-classic-one/
The chairs can slide on it’s foot. The spoke wheels were the most difficult.
Thanks for watching.

Oh my goodness me, Jan, this model is oh so gorgeous in every way.
It looks like I could just jump in and drive away, enjoying the wind in my hair.
Excellent!

I found the translation and nearly couldn’t stop laughing!
unfortunately I don’t have any more hair,
but I still do; a silver grey mullet!
So perfect for me!

Great work.
My hands shake so bad I could never build something so delicate.
Roughly how many hours on one of these?
Really nice. More patience than I’ve ever had.

Another great job Dutchy...
You been taking Croatian measuring lessons from maj’ (Ivan)? Lost your callipers? I know of a reasonable calliper storage box.
I used Mathew Wandel big print program and FYR (records),
it measures 378.572mm x 180.075mm x 120.808mm.
... from 40×18x13... is that before or after 1932?
A trip to an Amsterdam Cafe would steady one hand… second visit will steady the other… Unfortunately you may be another legless to walk out.

Beautiful Classic, great wood selections to make everything stand out with the details. Those seats look like they have been upholstered with that grain pattern. And those wheels really pop. Great all around.

Good looking “Morgan”?? It looks like a British Morgan. Very Nice. Morgans did have oak or ash frams afterall.
