Title: FC - VIRTUAL WHEELS ! Post by: Blown_FC on October 19, 2004, 11:01:18 PM Can you believe it....in my search for a nice set of wheels to suit my FC, I came across a website that actually has a 58 FC ( wagon ) as one of those virtual cars, where you can select a mag wheel to see what it would look like fitted.
Albeit a small selection to choose from, I just couldn;t believe that listed under the usual COMMODORE models, was 58 FC ! Check it out.... www.factorydirecttyres.com.au and go to the menu option " on car viewing " Cheers Mark ! Title: Re: FC - VIRTUAL WHEELS !

Title: Re: FC - VIRTUAL WHEELS ! Post by: Blown_FC on October 20, 2004, 12:27:58 AM Yeah...and I just love how you can not only see the wheels, but also push the play button and make the car drive to see the wheels turning, then they look like they are going backwards then when you push the stop button, the wheels slow down before stopping, just like in a real car !
Made some enquiries, and found out that the company has gone BUST, but at least the website is still working ! mark Title: Re: FC - VIRTUAL WHEELS ! Post by: fceedave on October 21, 2004, 08:41:16 AM the company has gone broke but the wheels can still be bought . In the last 12 months i have machined new 17X8 and 18X8 moulds for the roh adrenalin and fury
, not mention a host of hsv moulds and a few billet 3piece centers for the hsv show cars currently in the motor show. cool how you can see them spinning. pity you can,t change the paint scheme of the wagon. dave Title: Re: FC - VIRTUAL WHEELS ! Post by: Shayne on October 21, 2004, 11:35:41 PM would one of the computer gurus on this forum be able to get a copy of this car and programme before the website shuts down (if the company has gone broke)?
perhaps it could be placed on a disc or on this forum under 'unreal cars'? ??? Title: Re: FC - VIRTUAL WHEELS ! Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on October 22, 2004, 12:01:47 AM There is a painting program for FE/Cs already on the website. CraigA created it some time ago -
