Vehicle Body suggestions

I’d like to see a body inspired off the Hudson Hornet

I expect this has been suggested to death already, but I just mainly want some “clean slate”, you could call them, modern-ish bodies - so that they have nice clean surfaces to make one’s own designs on (no built-in character lines that the player cannot remove), are morphable enough to allow creativity in proportions, as well as come in a realistic spread of wheelbases.
I personally have ended up giving up on multiple cars just because the available bodies are all so awkward to work with (for example, a contemporary b-segment hatchback and a late-2000s / early 2010s compact sedan)

i second this, I rarely make modern cars for this very reason.

i also think the 80’s Civic “Muni” body should be remade or at least just updated, it was a nice body to work with in 4.24 but since it became vanilla a while ago its got pretty poor morphs and is quite hard to work with as I discovered recently when trying to recreate some older designs I made a couple of years ago, namely not being able to raise the height of the front end so unless you’re making a car with pop-up headlights, its most likely gonna look pretty terrible.

The roof height on the '84 Muni also cannot be adjusted, either.

We now have such a body set in the form of the reworked '87 Boat. However, one size is still missing from its diverse catalog: a C-segment variant with a 2.4m wheelbase. That matches the equivalent variant of the '89 Ice Cream, so adding a smaller variant to the '87 Boat will give us more options for C-segment cars from the late '80s all the way to the early '00s.

I’d love to do this at some point, it’s on my dream to-do list! :smile:

Please do. There’s a pretty dire need for cubical cabover bodies
The T3 body is outdated and unmorphable, the Hiace body too round, the two decent vans are too old (40’s cabovers)

It’s certainly on the cards for my next project, I do have either the Isuzu Elf Mk1 or VW Type 2 in mind!

could you perhaps also try the VW LT (1st gen) ? it’s perfectly cubical so fits many uses.

pings are bc internet issues

I recently realized that there are no Kia Soul kind of bodies (as of the most recent version, when i started) and i really want one in the game so i can make Kea Spirit

What about the Porsche 928 for an European GT?


Can’t go wrong with the Dodge Charger Daytona…


…or them Series-1 Mustangs for that matter.

Am I missing any other car bodies in between?

New Al Rilma Alpha Branch has a very versatile first generation mustang body.

Adjusting some of the frontal morphing zones on the '69 Mobula (2.7m wheelbase) can give it a wedge-shaped sloping nose similar to that of a Charger Daytona/Road Runner Superbird. The actual '63 Satellite/Road Runner body sets lack that option, though.

Eventually I may do the Chrysler B-Body remake and if I do I’ll make sure it has a morph for the front end to go Daytona/Superbird style 100% :sparkles:

That’s great news right there. I’ve been able to replicate Chrysler’s RB-Series and Ford’s 335- and 385-Series engines in Automation…except for the Gen-2 (1964 thorough 1971) “Street” Hemi and 1969 “Boss” 429 due to lacking any suitable valve covers and/or cylinder heads for them ATM.

i want more mid engined hatchbacks

A round coupe/hatchback body would be a nice addition (and not only because I want to make a TT replica

Unsure if the Mercy family already fills that niche
