blueprints/dimensions for rendering?...
 
hello all, lurker with a question for you 3d rendering guys...

does anyone know of a good spot to find blueprints/dimensions for vehicles? specifically im looking for a '65 lincoln continental, cant seem to find anything anywhere online (might hit the library later)...(thought a pt conti would be pretty bad :) )

just learned 3d cad last year, was wanting to try a project just for fun (cad's probably not the best thing for what im trying to do, but i dont really have the funds for something like modo (looking at it on their site right now, looks crazy cool though, and not a bad price at all, considering...), and i have it. work with what ya got i reckon...)

any input/direction appreciated:thumbsup:

:addition:

barring being able to find dimensions/blueprints, if i had a photo and imported it i could probably work off of that and then scale it, ya? (just thinking about it might come in handy for other things...)

and...modo...holy %$^&! crazy looking program. just got done going through the whole site. i might be able to snag it at a student discount price ($150 for a 1 year license), so maybe i give that a shot...(currently going for my masters in architecture, and in the process discovered that im not too bad with 3d stuff and kinda like doing it :) )
