The Junker v1.0.0

from scratch

---

Unless you've been living under a rock the past 20 years you'll probably recognize this beast from Half-Life2 Ep2, or maybe from GarrysMod (GMod).

Everything is made from scratch: 3D, Textures and Jbeams, and it features plenty of detachable parts and a lot of small details



Features that are worth mentioning:
✔️ All vehicle lights work
(short/high beams, brake, reverse and hazards, there's no turn signals, as it's missing the turn signal switch)
✔️ All 4 gauges work
(speedo and tacho on left beam arc, oil and fuel pressure on dash)
✔️ Working Magnusson radar
shows spawn (triangle), other vehicles (red dots) and other junkers (blue dots)
✔️ Dynamic detail props and body features
(engine fan, pedals, gearstick, oilstick, wiring, air filter, trunk)
✔️ Customizable engine shake/moaning
('moaning' does also affect driving performance)
✔️ Body / Frame / Wheels independently skinnable
(Included 5 body skins, 2 frame skins, 2 wheel skins)
✔️ Real '69 charger rear-end parts as an optional extra

And yes, it's possible to split the car in half

*Radar is also available in the Navigation Unit slot of any other car
