Content :
This addon pack features 4 iconics General Motors fullsize cars : the 1980 Oldsmobile 98 Regency and Delta 88, and the 1984 to 1989 Chevrolet Caprice Classic and Impala. They are declined into 9 body variants and more than 150 configurations. With tons of custom parts, engine variations, interior trims, for hours of fun !

Lets see those body variants deeper in details :

- Oldsmobile 98 Regency
You will find this huge land boat in 4 body styles, the Sedan, the coupe, the limo and now in exclusivity for the V2.0 release and the three years anniversary of the mod, the very new convertible featuring power windows by Blijo, and working soft top based on a Ar162B prototype. Tonneau Cover Lua by Thomatoes50. All those bodies available in many funky configurations, from rust buckets, to Dragster, Restomods and Off Road crawlers.




- Chevrolet Caprice Classic
The caprice Classic is featured in Sedan variants, Wagon, and now for V2.0 release the new LS variant, luxury car playing the little Cadillac role of its life, with aliminium trim dashboard and landau vinyl roof.
This 3D model is a guest mod by my friend Carface80, a famous GTA modder, that i merged with my own mod and chassis to make it share all thedrivetrain, engines and even some seats with it.
Chevy Caprice and Oldsmobile Delta 88 are close cousins, sharing same B-body chassis and drivetrain, some engines, so it made sense to merge a beautiful already available 3D model rather than creating a new one on my own.



- Chevrolet Impala
Version V2.0 is happy to welcome the impala variant. It's basically a quick adapation with a different front fascia and tailcone also made by Carface, assorted with my Delta 88 basic bench seats that fit pretty well for the usage. This is not an in depth creation of the real impala, with all the interior details. Maybe in the future.
Note that some Chevy Caprice variants of the previous version are now changed into Impala's (Pittburg police and so on...)



- Oldsmobile Delta 88
Available in Sedan, Wagon (called Custom Cruiser) and now for V2.0 the Delta 88 Coupe, as usual in many configurations.



Highlights :
- The V2.0 focuses on adding rusty, weak, highly deformable and self disintegrating variants to all body styles. Before only the 98 Regency had a rusty version. I had tons of pleasure making those textures, jbeam tweaks and dusty glasses. Those skins are all body colorable and you can tune them via the color palette selector.
You can select the engine look between clean, dusty, rusty and dusty and rusty combined, in the engine parts.



- Besides the addition of the Delta 88 coupe, i've added more interior trims for the whole Delta 88 and custom cruiser range, making them more accurate as before only the Brougham seats was available, and the Custom Cruiser wasn't produced with them. So now you can find basic interior with front bench, Royale interior, Brougham interior and bucket seats with floor shifter. Note that these last accessories work in the Chevy Caprice as tuning parts.Also it make street legal custom sedan or convertible cars more interesting.
All seats also available on the 98 Regency.



- Custom wheels are available for both Chevrolet and Oldsmobile cars, and you can select the center cap badge to fit the proper brand. Oldsmobile hubcaps are available on Chevy cars and vice versa, to increase beater, redneck repairs tuning possibilities.



- Now the mod gives support to all vanilla tires and wheels to makes them dusty or in junkard condition. It makes the tuning more consistent.
Just select the dirty tires, dirty wheels, and dirty hubcaps slot in the part selector, according to a nice rusty skin and your redneck repaired or beater car will look way more realistic. Works with all vanilla wheels, tires, hubcaps as well as my custom wheels, tires and hubcaps.
Note that considering the huge amount of vanilla wheels, this is not an in depth and per wheel dusty or age damage effect but just an overlay texture applyed.




- Offroad variants are available for every body styles.



- huge variety of engines and exhaust, dual exhausts now available on all engines. New 6.2 liters Chevrolet Diesel engine available in several configurations.



- And for fun, added the ability to create front wheel drive cars, so to illustrate the possibilities, i've added this redneck created FWD rusty dragster called "the Stupid" Nothing really efficient to expect

- tailgate : Press O once to have it open from top to bottom, and O twice to have it open like a door.

Also improved the Caprice headlights glasses that are more detailled than before :

It's a new skin called metal paint, and i had to duplicate some other skins to get them have the metallic paint too (No chrome, restored chassis, two tones, and so on...)




- Fixed adjusted all colors, a lot of them where a bit weird after the graphical change update.



- Fixed the dusty and rusty engine skins that were shiny after the graphic changes. They are now matte again.

Hi Everyone, and welcome to the thread of the V1.5 of the American '80 Fullsize Series.

The mod pack is on finishing stage, so it's time to show you a little teaser of it.
To have fun after a long period of work on those cars, i made a short comics story and had fun integrating characters in it, and showcase some new stuff of the mod.
I wanted to do that last year as well but lacked time to achieve. It's not finished like i wish it would be, but anyway, i'm sure you are all more interested in discovering new body variants, so here it is.

If you look closely the images, you will maybe notice some changes and improvments, as well as some new parts.

I go on working on the mod for now , more info teasers to come very soon so this is going to be more detailled progressivly.

I answer to some questions already : yes, the range of cars is no more limited to Oldsmobile. And yes, a well known modder have cars featured in the pack now

 

I see a Caprice, and a wagon. Instant 5 star rating.

 

i see spelling errors but other than that, good job

 

so when do you think it will be released?

 

That station wagon is awesome! Can not wait! I think its gonna be worth the wait that's for sure.


Now if there was something like this for the 8th gen Mitsubishi Galant and Legnum.

 

Is that a Caprice in there? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

YES! I can finally have a "Shaggin' Wagon"!!!!

 

for god sake !!!

 

Will there be more rusty cars, in addition to the 98 sedan?

 

Yes indeed

Available in 1986 and 1989 headlights and details (in the teaser the 1986 Caprice has 1989 side lights, because i havn't made the amber ones when i did the screenshots)



Lights are working like on the real ones, thanks to the Caprice owners or specialists of the beta test group, Sierra-3, Peterbilt and Qwerty9586

 

Cool and good

 

Awesome?, nah, it's badass, i hope you can add a trunk rack.

 

This a good idea. The mod has other stuff but not this one yet. I'll add it in an update after the release.

 

Really cool to see that Caprice, totally unexpected. Will it be avaible as a wagon tho? Nice work anyway.

Also, saw a cool Delta last weekend.

 

Wow thanks, awesome beater Delta 88

 

A wagon? HELL YES!

 

My god! :O
