				Know where I can get a 911 CAD (AutoCad) drawing file?
			 
			Seems lots of you guys are involved in engineering, so I thought maybe someone here could help me out with this. I need plan and elevation views of a 911 (80's model preferably) in AutoCad (.DWG) or Microstation (.DGN) format. WindowsMetafile (.WMF) might also work. Thanks...will be very useful in some garage and site planning I'm doing. | ||

			You can get really good drawings of the 911 from the factory repair manuals.  Volume 2 has the  body work section for the 911, along with  drawings of all the critical dimensions. If you have access to these manuals  make some  copies. I have Vol 1 which is the engine and drivetrain.   Lots of clubs  or groups of friends pool money and buy the manuals, but usually only Vol 1,  befriend a mechanic that has the full set and ask to make  copies of the  drawings. You could then do the wire frames on autocad or microstation, then all you would have to do is put a surface on the wireframe I was going to make a wireframe dwg of the 911 then run it through some FEA software to run torsion, impact and other load tests on the 911 so I could learn where to remove material to make my car as light as possible, and where to reinforce fo drive safety

			TimT, that was going to be my next move (find dimensioned drawings and draft it myself).  Ended up locating a .3DS file and converting to AutoCad. I can now view/plot/render this 3D model '82 911 from any angle:     Also found the 993 (2D only):  ...and this '55:  Lots of stuff available... | ||

			sure, Wayne... Lemme back-grade them (to Acad 13 or so) and I'll send them along. Then you'll be able to access them with older versions. Hmmm...just realized I don't know where to send you email with attachments. Will try wayne@pelicanparts.com Last edited by TedSlick; 07-29-2002 at 08:34 PM.. | ||

			That would be great if we can put them together here. I always have the same 993 on most of my drawings. Also like to have more varieties Porsche. Andy '87 Carrera | ||

			You can download a free dxf/dwg view here: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/index/0,,837403-123112,00.html This viewer allows you to rotate the images to view them from any angle.
