Description
This model was created in Tinkercad by Dany Sánchez.
Cadillac Ranch is a public art installation and sculpture in Amarillo, Texas, USA. It was created in 1974 by Chip Lord, Hudson Marquez and Doug Michels, who were a part of the art group Ant Farm.
The installation consists of ten Cadillacs (1949-1963) buried nose-first in the ground. Installed in 1974, the cars were either older running, used or junk cars — together spanning the successive generations of the car line — and the defining evolution of their tailfins (from Wikipedia).
Our model shows only 3 but you can certainly print it several times. You can see the progression of the tail fin in our 3 junk caddies!
MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this model to life as a homage to the people of Amarillo. Please give credit, it's all about spreading culture!Â

Suggested parameters:
For better details, print slow, such as 15 or 20mm/s for outer perimeters.
Fine-tune retraction to avoid stringing.
Perimeters: 2
Top layers: 3
Infill: minimum 12%,Â
You may use supports under the wheels, but they are not necessary, depending on your cooling and fan settings. If unsupported, they still look fine as the slight misprints help the "ruined" look.
The clay print photos is without supports. The photo in color used MMU and supports.
