In practice
Where it goes
Small 1970s cars suit elevations of subdivisions of that decade, a section through a carport beside a bungalow or a street section outside a corner store. The quad round headlamps and hood badge give the front enough character to read at ⅛ in = 1 ft (1:100) on a presentation sheet.
Clearances to leave
Measuring 6 ft 1 in (184 cm) wide it fits a tight 8 ft (240 cm) stall with 11 in (28 cm) each side, and a carport of 9 ft 10 in (300 cm) clear leaves room to pass the open door. Height of 56 in (142 cm) under a 7 ft (213 cm) carport beam gives space for a bike hung above the hood.
Pairs with
Draw it beside the 1970s sedan with upright grille and paired round lamps for a street of the same decade, with Two adults and a child holding hands walking past. A wood carport post each side frames it in the elevation.
