I've been looking for something to build and think I have found it; the 1938 Auto Union Type D. (plans from VSRN)

The thing is, I want to build the body too from scratch. But where to begin? What type of wood to carve? What are the dimensions of a 1/32 scale car?

Would someone be willing to share or impart some knowledge on a new but enthusiastic beginner?

Thanks, in advance!

Thanks everyone for your responses! This should give me a good start...

The only question I have is regarding laminating: Which direction does the sheets of balsa, obechi, etc. lie, or does it stand on edge and run the length of the car?

That's it for now....again, thanks!
