Ok! many thanks!
Well, here the 4 files
- main ( turn light on off)
- audi and bike (available many colors)
- Dennis (person)
- png preview
The audi was my first pov car a lot of years ago. Clean and parse using very old
good programs ( Crossroad and the prehistoric Glview)
It's simple but it makes me nostalgic!

NEXT file will be the "facchino" with the separate components
Then, more elaborate cars and persons ...

BR again!
G.
