Description: This is the 1979 Pontiac Trans Am SE. Every effort was made to make this car look and perform as closely to the orginal as possible. It features a duo-tone paint scheme utilizing primary and secondary color channels found in the fce file. The logos, interior and rims change color according to the paint color selected for the car.
The mesh has been changed, the performance has been completely redone to handle as close as possible to the original car, the interior dash is new. Readable logos and plates thanks to Thomas Egelkraut.

Installation: Simply unzip this file to a temp directory such as c:/unzipped. Now, go to your c:/programfiles/need for speed 3/gamedata/carmodel directory and create a new folder called 79se. Now copy all the files to the gamedata/carmodel/79se folder you made a minute ago. Load up NFS 3 and enjoy.
Credits to: Eletronic Arts - without which none of this would be possible, Max Custer (for accepting me as a member of his site, hosting my developements, and for the many track making tips) and Thomas Egelkraut for his many suggestions, tips, and actual help to me with this project.

Revision info:
Version v1.0: Completed first draft of entire car including new dash, performance, mesh, texture, and sound.
