240Z Blueprints

[jasonparuta]

I am looking for blueprints for the 240Z. Technical drawings of the top, front, side, and back of the car. I want to build a 3D model of it. If anyone helps I'll send them a render of it when I finish!

thanks

Check out my gallery "Cad drawing", I made in AutoCad. The drawing dimensions well but it is 2d. The info you probably want is in the Nissan Service manuals. Pm me if you want my .dwg file

How did you get the dimensions? It appears to me that the drawing is too wide at the front of the doors. This might happen if the measurements came from a wide angle photo taken from just above the car. It seems like the doors should be almost parallel.

I'd love to have a 3D model of the Z to use as a 'model' for our web graphics. If you get this done, there might be a Zcar Microfiche CD in it for you.

How many polygons are you after Mike. I have one that I used to make the animation in my avatar.

I was planning on making a high polygon model, but working and building my real 240z dont leave too much time for building a virtual 240z. At least now i have a the real one to take measurements off.

Those blueprints arn't very accurate.

Jason What program are you using for 3D modelling?

Heres a better pic

I'm using 3dsmax 5.1

Oh yeah, as Mr Camo said, those pics I linked to are definitely not accurate. I wouldn't use them alone to make a model.... e.g. check out the rear quarter window!
