#1 CAD Model of 1200 saloon
crispdollaz Posted on: 2010/1/15 21:13
Hi all,

I'm tryin to get started on a project 1200 sedan - first thing: vehicle model.

I'll be buying a roller asap, and from that I'll make the measurements to input into SolidWorks for the parts I'll design for manufacture. In the mean time however, I'd also like to have a reasonably accurate modeling of the rest of the vehicle - the bodywork essentially.

If there are any blueprints, or most preferably (but probably unlikely) an accurate 3d model of the 1200 saloon somewhere that one of you know of... that'd be fantastic. I'll gladly take blueprints however, due to how boxy the car is.

Thanks

thanks ddgonzal!

I've found drawings like these, but sadly none of them are quite the resolution I'm hoping are available somewhere.

Has anyone seen these diagrams in resolutions up to 1000+ pixels width? Also, apparently there are chassis blueprints also, which may prove to be more useful for me initially.

Anyone? thanks!

Man I got exited when I saw CAD model, I was a little disappointed when I found it was a cad drawing.
A 3d model would be so bad ass, I could actually model a whole conversion, i'd never have to do stuff twice again! :)

Does anyone have a chassis blueprint image??!! Or anything else for that matter.

Thanks again for the blueprints.

The aspect ratios needed to be adjusted just a little before all of the written dimensions would actually match correctly in Solidworks. At this point, I can draw construction lines at points on the car, measure the distances between and they'll match the drawing! YES

Well... here goes my first vehicle model attempt! Hopefully the +/- error wont be too bad - if its under 5cm, I'll be happy. This is only to experiment with possible engine/axle swaps, and to play with the visual appearance, etc.
