odd polys? - Polyloop

I can't figure out what is causing this. Going to go back to the modeler and see if I can fix it, but I'm not sure what the problem is. This will be the third time I've put this back in the modeler; Metasequoia, to try to fix it. There are no overlapping polys or shaired textures. Everything looks fine in the modeler so I'm not sure what to think.

Can you make your .car available?

It's hard to see from the size of your jpg.

Does it render ok or not?

I get odd shadows in the render. I put it through my modeler again. Did a few things with the polys and figured out the problem, I'm going to have to invert some areas poly by poly. When I unifie faces, several of the polys invert. In that shot the model had double sided polys, so those bad ones may be the inverted back of the poly; or something like that

I'm ready to get this scene done, it will be my first and has been a rather nice learning experiance

Looks to be flipped normals or polys over polys. How are you importing?
