I found this model on GrabCAD.

https://grabcad.com/library/chevrolet-corvette-c7-stingray-14-1

It's an awesome model but not 3D printable.

!!! Please read the ENTIRE print instructions before attempting to print this !!!

Instructions are in Instructions.pdf

The other cars I did were solid with no interior. The windows were black.  I decided to do an interior on this one but I didn't think it would look right without at least a windshield and back window.  I experimented with different things and none of them worked, so I decided to buy a vacuum forming machine.

The mold parts are in "Mold_Pieces.zip" if you decide to use them.

This is what I ordered:

I'm not promoting this item, it's just what I used.

Keep in mind that it picks up every little detail. The first attempts didn't work because even though I used putty and sanded the mold pieces, it still showed the layer lines.  I had to print them in ABS and then spray it with acetone.  Wait for it to dry and sand it.  Then spray with acetone and sand again.

I also made parts for paint masking.

You don't have to use them if you are good at painting, but they came in handy for me.

They are all in "Paint_Masks.zip".

You just use some double-sided scotch tape and stick them to the part you want to mask.

Then I had the issue of how to glue it on without the glue showing.  I decided to paint the inside of the window frames to match the gluing surface.

I printed the body and almost all the parts at 0.10 layer height.

The following parts need supports everywhere:

Body_Front

Body_Rear

 

The following parts need supports on base plate:

Door_Left

Door_Right

Windshield_Frame

 

The rest don't need supports.
