AM Pro Rides has been around a while, but I thought I’d tell you about it in case you haven’t seen the cars there. I’ve always had an interest in old cars (in a weird marketing and styling kind of way) and when I first saw the cars they sell there I was wowed. For many months it’s been in the back of my head as “That place with the incredible cars that I forgot to landmark.”
Finally, through some persistent Google searching (good luck with SL search) I found AM Pro Rides again, now in their own region. The cars look just as good as I remember. What makes them really stunning is this — they were all done in the days before sculpties. Yet through finely joined pieces, expert texturing, and attention to detail, they still look closer to a real life car than anything else in Second Life.
I don’t make it my business to promote people’s products in this blog. I’m certainly not urging you to buy anything (for they are expensive). But take some time to go to the region, set the environment to Sunrise, and watch the sun gleam on the bumpers.

Drooooool ……
Suh-weet … those have gotta be the most beautiful vehicles I’ve seen in SL to date. Thanks for the SLurl, Garth … I’m certainly going to be visiting if only to watch the sun gleam off all that polished chrome! Like you, I’ve always had a love for old cars and so-called “muscle cars” in particular. My best friend in HS had a ’72 Pontiac LeMans that we’d drive to school every day … we felt like kings rumbling into the parking lot and cruisin’ past the rows of plastic-bumpered imports.
Hmmm … wonder if they have a ’69 Camaro Droptop?
